The On Location curriculum will take you through all the steps to help you brainstorm, plan, shoot, and edit a documentary that will feature an artist or arts group in your community.
This curriculum is designed for upper elementary and middle school grades (grades 6-8). It combines language arts, media arts, drama, and technology into a comprehensive learning experience using hands-on activities as students create the story (based in factual research) and then learn and apply the technical skills of media production.
There are four main sections to the curriculum: Story Development, Pre-Production, Production, and Post-Production. The exercises and tools will help you and your students create an engaging documentary that will tell a story of the arts in your community.
On Location provides students with experiences using digital media to tell stories, share, and explore their world. Through arts-centered learning projects like On Location, students develop the ability to
- think critically and creatively,
- communicate effectively, and
- work collaboratively
—all key 21st Century skills
that prepare young people for
the real world.
