School Video Project:
Election 2012
The newest KET School Video Project is underway! Election 2012 is a timed project asking for student videos about the upcoming presidential election, the election process, the candidates, past presidents, or any related topic.
Schools uploading videos from this spring through October 2012 will be automatically entered in a monthly prize drawing. Prizes are limited to one per school and include a greenscreen background, tripod, camcorder, light kit, software, etc. March's winner is Tim Withers of Wayne County High School who won a 10'x12' greenscreen and stand kit!
For more information on the KET School Video Project visit the project's website.
Storm Resources
Like all Kentuckians, the KET Education staff is thinking about those affected by the recent tornadoes and looking for ways to help.
Visit Education Consultant Cynthia Warner's blog for a list of videos than can provide images and context for your lessons about severe weather, plus a section about helping children cope with natural disasters. Also see the KET Storm Recovery page for additional resources.
