The goal of this project is to provide our new Sports Broadcasting class with better audio equipment for interviews, sporting events, and video projects. The grant will be used to purchase four (4) sets of DJI Mic Mini wireless microphones that can connect to our current video equipment.
Because Sports Broadcasting is a new course, we are still building the equipment students need to learn and practice broadcasting skills. Good sound is an important part of creating quality videos. These microphones will allow students to clearly record interviews with athletes, coaches, and other members of our school community. Having four sets will also allow more students to work in small groups at the same time.
Students will learn important skills such as interviewing, public speaking, video production, teamwork, and storytelling. They will also learn how to set up and use audio equipment similar to what is used in real sports broadcasting and media careers.
The microphones will also be shared with our existing TV Production classes. This means the equipment will benefit even more students and can be used for school news, interviews, video projects, sports coverage, and other productions.
This project supports our school’s goal of giving students hands-on learning experiences with technology. Students in both Sports Broadcasting and TV Production will have the opportunity to build real-world skills while creating content that highlights our students, teams, and school community.
Students will actively use the DJI Mic Mini wireless microphones in our Sports Broadcasting and TV Production classes. They will use the microphones to interview athletes, coaches, students, and staff. Students will also use them while covering sporting events, creating school news stories, and producing video projects.
This equipment will give students better tools to record clear and professional sound. Having four microphone sets will allow more students to work in small groups at the same time. Since the equipment will be shared between Sports Broadcasting and TV Production, it will benefit many students throughout the school year.
Students will first learn how to properly set up and use the microphones. The teacher will demonstrate the equipment, and then students will practice using it. Students will learn how to prepare interview questions, conduct interviews, record clear audio and video, and edit their work into a finished project. They will also take turns working as broadcasters, reporters, camera operators, writers, and producers.
Most importantly, students will be able to take what they learn in the classroom and use it in real situations. They will cover school events, interview members of our school community, and create sports and news stories. This hands-on experience will help students build communication, teamwork, technology, and broadcasting skills that can be used in future classes, college, and careers.
This project will help students become better speakers, stronger team members, and more confident using technology. Students will get hands-on practice interviewing people, speaking on camera, and creating sports and news videos.
One of the biggest goals is to help students build self-confidence. Speaking in front of a camera or interviewing someone can be difficult for many students. The more they practice, the more comfortable they will become. Students will learn to speak clearly, make eye contact, ask good questions, and listen to the answers.
The project will also help students become better at communicating with adults. Students will interview coaches, teachers, school leaders, guest speakers, and other adults. This will teach them how to introduce themselves, have a conversation, ask questions, and speak in a respectful and professional way.
We will know the project is successful by watching students improve throughout the year. Their interviews, sports stories, videos, and other projects will show their growth. Students will also complete reflections about their own progress.
The teacher will use student projects, class observations, and simple rubrics to measure improvement. Success will be seen when students are more confident speaking, more comfortable talking with teens and adults, better at working with others, and able to create stronger video projects.
The grant funds will be used to purchase four sets of DJI Mic Mini wireless microphones for our new Sports Broadcasting course and existing TV Production classes. These microphones will give students better sound when recording interviews, sporting events, school news, and other video projects.
The microphones directly support student learning by giving students hands-on experience with the same type of technology used in broadcasting and video production. Students will learn how to set up the equipment, record clear audio, conduct interviews, work as a team, and create finished video projects. Having these mics will also allow several groups to work at the same time, giving more students a chance to use the equipment.
The equipment will support our goal of helping students become better communicators, more confident speakers, and stronger users of technology. It will also help students become more comfortable interviewing and communicating with both teens and adults.
About 40 students each school year will directly benefit from this equipment through the Sports Broadcasting and TV Production classes. Because the microphones can be shared between classes and used year after year, they will continue to benefit many future students as well.
