2007: Feature workshop: “Marina View School Television” - breakout 3

Colin Gover and Maurice Young of Marina View School plan to provide participants with experience in how to make an MVTV show. The MVTV crew will take you through the process of making the show. Become a learner and join a group of children to help put the show together and learn lots of new skills to take back to your school so you can make your own TV show.

You will have the chance to be a producer, a scriptwriter, a camera person, a video editor, make the weather, this week in history, a presenter, sound technician or lighting crew and many more roles. Maurice and Colin, along with the MVTV crew, will show you how MVTV grew from small beginnings into what it is today. It is a show of the children, by the children, for the children. It is recorded live three days a week, shown to the entire school and uploaded to our school website to be viewed in NZ and the world.

Colin has been the Marina View School’s ICT Director for the last 7 years. He was co facilitator as Marina View School was an ICT Lead School and has presented workshops at conferences for many years and recently presented at the ACEC Conference in Australia. Maurice has been principal of Marina View School since 2004. From trusting that exciting things would develop, and supporting the ideas and the people, Maurice has seen how technology can truly make an impact on the Marina View School community.
