I've had a little hiatus from my blogging, but have decided to get back to it. I will be introducing new Marshall Public School media center events, materials, and reading/writing related resources on this page. Check back weekly for updates.
This week's focus is on some of the technology equipment/materials available for checkout.
First on the table is the collaboration table that was introduced this past spring at the high school. Over the summer I purchased a stand with table for the television monitor so that it can easily be moved to a classroom. See the media center staff at the circulation counter for checkout to your classroom, or for use in the media center.
Are your students producing video or audio projects? Several types of headsets and microphones are available. See your options below:
A classroom set of 25 headsets (headphone and mic). These may be checked out individually, in small sets, or the entire collection.
Also available is a classroom set of Eberry microphones for student recording. These, too, may be checked out individually or as a class set.
Finally, there are two cordless mic options for student devices and/or teacher laptops: a handheld style or lapel style. Two of each are available for checkout at each of the high school and middle school media centers. I am working on an additional cordless mic option that is compatible with Ipads.
A green screen is located at each building for classroom use, or for use in the media center for student/staff video production. Two Ipads with the DoInk green screen app can be checked out at each building. Students may also use VideoPad which is a similar application to DoInk, but compatible and free to download for the student Windows 10 devices.
Karen, the media center staff, and I are available to help with the operation of this equipment
