Telecom Grant | |
Apple Mac Pros and Flat Screen Monitors with Software The Telecommunications department at Lake Forest High School has been awarded several grants since 2004. In 2007, the Foundation was able to provide new MAC desktops and state of the art software.
The Telecom class is full with cameras, computers, and televisions. Students begin with the basics. Every first semester Telecom student is given a camera, a shoot list and a time limit. No one is allowed to tape over his or her work. After project completion, the students share their work with the group. The teacher pointing out the positive and the areas of improvement of each individual’s work support the educational process. As students move through the Telecom curriculum, they learn the importance of the message. Students learn that the goal of media is to communicate with an audience. Their job is to define their audience and develop a way to communicate the message most effectively. Some students show ability with the camera, some with the production process, and others excel with the technology. Their goal is not to build silos of knowledge, but rather to foster the development of how information benefits the understanding of the world. The computers, the software and the cameras are a means to an end. The real lesson is seeing the power of the message and learning how to create it.
