In some ways the pandemic forced me to rethink the way I do things in the classroom. One of the biggest benefits has been trying to distill the best practices into something that can translate to an online, virtual education. To that end, my son Avery has been an absolute godsend in the way in which he can edit short films, a passion of his.
So, when it came time to teach essay writing for my AP World class, a video format was needed. Filming at school, and learning from my 12 year old how to edit - we came up with this. Pretty proud of it. Hope it helps anyone who needs it.
