Hello dear colleagues in the world,

I am Maurits Kamman, a teacher of History from the Netherlands. I teach at St.-Canisius in Almelo and Tubbergen. This is in the eastern part of our small country.
Together with some colleauges and many students we are going to record our daily life at school, at home or somwhere else.
I hope our students will see a lot of you and learn that we are, unless some differences, all the same, namely: Global Citizins!

Best wishes to you all!

Maurits Kamman

Good luck on Friday, everyone!

Remember - we have plenty of time to upload afterward, so focus your energy on getting cameras into students hands by Friday and helping them with ideas!

Personally, I recommend filming simple, quiet, everyday moments, rather than staged events (although they can be wonderful also!) Try looking for little, human stories that anyone might relate to - two children sharing a laugh, a parent's affection to a child, people at play or at work, people you find engaged in everyday activities, traffic on the street, ...

Some simple technical advice for students:
* Don't rush the shot. Take your time and be patient. Don't move the camera around or zoom while you shoot. Begin a shot then count to 30 slowly in your head before touching the camera again.
* Brace your camera by putting it on a tripod or simply resting it on a firm surface. (But if you do move your camera, move with it - for instance, by walking down a crowded sidewalk.)
* Pay special attention to how the light is falling on your subject(s). Look for good and interesting light (like a bright window, or when the sun is low in the sky.)
* Look for interesting angles, or interesting points of view. Try shooting from over your head or from down on the floor, for example. Or try shooting under, around, or through something in the foreground to create depth and a sense of place.

Do you have any suggestions? Please share them here!

I hope this helps!
Chris

Hello dear friends,
Time passes fast and soon November 11 comes. I am very happy to meet old friends of mine who were very active last year. I hope that our projects will be a success again. We are going to document our school activities as it's a school day and some special events such as birthdays. Hope you will enjoy our videos and photos. I see many of us are going to showcase school activities. It's a brilliant idea as we can compare school life in different countries and see similarities and differences.
I wish all the participants good luck and success!
Looking forward to seeing all your works!
Best wishes

Hi Nataliya-

We will receive instructions from One Day on Earth about uploading videos starting on Friday - last year there was a big "upload" button on the homepage, I recall. I imagine they will do something like that again.

As to photos, while you and your students are encouraged to post them here on this site (I forget how - I think within one's own profile?), I do definitely encourage you to post them in our iEARN forum at foro.iearn.org/.ee70728 - specifically in the 11.11.11 documents discussion we've made there. You can attach one photo to each post (the post is a good place to write a caption or title.)

Does that help? Sorry it's confusing!

Best-
Chris

>But where will the students have to upload the ptotos to? - To the comment >wall here or in the albums on the students' (teachers') pages?
>could you make that clear? Thank you.

Our students are ready to document 11.11.11. It is a normal school day for us, so they will document their day at school,home, and a bit of Hong Kong!
