Educators say Multimedia Broadcasting Curriculum for Students Makes Them Masters of Their Own Education

NEW YORK, Dec. 23, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Kriss Hupp and Patricia Dahmen are educators at the Cornell School District who created an extracurricular live broadcast journalism program for students. Students produce a daily news program for other students, faculty, and staff in the community called "TheCornellCHSTV". The show is entirely developed and produced by the students. The curriculum teaches students how to operate and construct their own broadcasts "in the doing". Students learn a broad range of skills including presentation, camera angles, lighting and communication. Through the program, students become masters of their own education. "The students who join CHSTV are looking to learn more about broadcast journalism, and some of them have become "experts" in their job positions. This enables them to become teachers," says Dahmen.

Hupp and Dahmen believe technology is a powerful tool that should be used to enable students to create and collaborate with their peers around the world. "As technology evolves, so does our student experiences," says Dahmen.
