Malvern Valley Primary School in Melbourne’s East hosted a great Big Day In Junior on Wednesday August 28.
Big Day In Junior events are hands-on STEM focused events for Year 5 and 6 students organised by the Australian Computer Society Foundation. A number of representatives from companies such as Apple, Google, Origin Energy and of course Adobe dedicated the day to provide opportunities for students from a range of primary schools.
The schools that I worked with included:
- Glen Huntley Primary School
- Lloyd Street Primary School
- Caulfield Junior College
- Coatesville Primary School
- East Bentleigh Primary School
- Malvern Valley Primary School &
- Korowa Anglican Girls School
The aim of the Adobe session was to develop digital video literacy skills with Adobe Spark Video. Following a demo of how simple Spark Video is as a tool to make a quality video production, the students were encouraged to partner up and work with an iPad to produce a video about their passions.
It was a great pleasure to work with these students and see the creative video work they achieved.
