Wow! what an amazing and inspiring video this is
I wrote a post on my blog earlier about how the use of ICT'S in class can foster an environment where every student is equal and I loved how all of the students were interacting with the technology, just as capable as any other student anywhere in Australia.
Seeing the students and how they worked with the music to tell there own story also inspired me as it was a great example of how students who are usually more withdrawn will express themselves through music.
The students in the community had few resources and very little support however were still able to overcome these barriers while in class through the use of multimedia devices to bring out their ideas and creativity.
The techniques that the film crew used obviously worked and considered the students culture and backgrounds and how they could use their experiences to tell there own story with fantastic outcomes and results.
As one of the elders in the video commented "without our culture, we'd be lost", and what the crew did not only engaged the students by using multimedia but allowed them to identify strongly with their culture which was what I loved the most about this video.
