Wondering why I have been filming students working in class the past couple weeks?! Here's the video I made to apply to be an Apple Distinguished Educator. I had such a great time surfing through our archives and viewing how much Chute Media Arts has transformed in the past eight years! Thank you to all the students and staff who participated and helped me gather footage and photos of everything we do. I am so proud to work at such a wonderful place with so many outstanding and creative people! Enjoy the video!

Congratulations to the following students who had their work displayed
at the District 65/202 Art Show at ETHS last night: Media Arts Josh Ahn Michaela Brooke Tess Dinerstein Jordan Drummond Ruby Fagen Quinten Herzig Nicklas Kanzok Rachel Orenstein Hannah Stein Kim Tran Visual Arts Malaika Bergner Erin Eddy Nasim Ellani Nick Fong Karina Martinez Rafael Martinez Paublo Soto Carolina Stutz Sadie Vinson Liana Wallace At the beginning of 2nd trimester the 6th grade Media Arts classes learned about different photography techniques. We discussed how to create successful photographs using different angles of view and strategies for composing great shots!
The 1st and 7th period students completed photo research projects that provide student descriptions and explanations of various photographs from famous photographers. On Thursday (when it finally warmed up a bit) we ventured outside for a mini Photo Safari. The students had a chance to apply what they learned in class to their own photography. They used their iPads and phones to shoot photos which will be part of students' "In My Evanston" iMovie projects that students are currently creating! Congratulations to all the students who painted our winning snow plow:
