Nashoba moves forward with projectors/cable in the classroom

Our high school has worked very hard to equip teachers with ceiling mounted projectors in the classroom. We have configured the projectors/dvd player and coaxial cable to broadcast video in the classroom.

We are now preparing to connect to the schools video distribution system to broadcast events.

This blog is another tool used to showcase media and events in our high school as we move forward teaching in a 21st Century model.

Welcome to our Class Video and Media Blog

The purpose of this blog will be to post class videos, events and annoucements.
Mrs. Off and Mrs. Marotta will work with students to model the effective use of a class blog.

Stay tuned.....
