Nice to connect, Chris. I teach Humanities, Psychology, and Theory of Knowledge in southern Taiwan. My humanities students weave visual storytelling through multimedia into their learning over the course of the year. This is our first semester project. They have been developing plans for about 2 weeks.
Some are focusing on more visual elements/concepts, but most are focusing on capturing learning, community, the environment, and global issues affecting our lives here in southern Taiwan. We'll spend the day filming on and around our campus, but most student groups are then taking to the city and surrounding area for the early morning, afternoon, and evening.
We'd love to connect and share our footage. The students could meet up via Skype (it's a little difficult with the time difference but not impossible) to discuss questions that the two of us, and all of them, have created. Comparing schools, local environments and cultures ... could be good. We could even offer some simple Chinese lessons if they're interested :)
