At Day Treatment, we have just received a grant that will allow every teacher to have a camera for their classroom. This grant also covers the teachers at Florence Crittenton and Bluegrass Youth Development Center. At Day Treatment, started the year with one camera and it has been passed around from room to room. Each field trip the camera is carried by the students to take the pictures. Goal 1,2,4,6 ---When they return, we are encouraging them to use the pictures to create multimedia presentations. In addition, we would like to print some of the pictures to be used on bulletin boards, to highlight student achievements and to publicize other events going on in the building. For this to be done, we need to purchase a color photo quality printer. When pictures are taken, the class may use a photo request form that STLP will create to request copies of the photos to be printed. Goal 1,2,4,6 --It will be the job of the STLP group to decide if the pictures are academically appropriate for printing or if there is some other merit for printing the photos. (WITH SUPERVISION) The STLP group will be responsible for printing the photos and delivering them to the teachers. Digital pictures can be submitted from the other programs to be printed.

TCE News is our school news show. The show airs one time a week which allows for STLP students to fully produce and edit the show for broadcast.
The students are in charge of finding news, writing scripts, filming segments, putting on computer, editing (includes creating titles, cutting unnecessary footage, adding music) and then creating a DVD to show (although I hope to have our editing computer hooked to our close circuit to eliminate this step).
Our school uses Pinnacle 9 for video editing but we are hoping to purchase Adobe Visual Communicator 3 this year and begin using it to edit.
