[ISLMA-Share] GoPro Cameras

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I would agree that most students do use their own devices to make the videos these days. We just wanted to provide another option or see if we can really get their creativity flowing with a go-pro to take production to the next level. Thanks for the follow up!

We purchased some of those after the Flip cams and Bloggies were
discontinued.  At the time we would have students/teachers check them out
to record videos for class assignments.  I don't think the students did
much editing, but they would just connect the camera to a computer and
transfer the file off of it after they were done.  Most of the time our
students just use their phones to record video now --they're more
comfortable using those to shoot but a lot of them need help importing the
file into something they can edit and then exporting a final file so they
can turn it in.

Have your students been asking for stand alone cameras?
