Daniel Asay dreamed of giving students real-world digital media experience.
The Santiam Junior and Senior High School educator knew all it would take would be access to quality tools.
Thanks to a 2018 SPARK! Educator Grant (now called Creative Educator Grants) from SELCO Community Credit Union, the classroom is now equipped with professional lighting, sound, and recording gear—empowering students to produce their own videos and digital stories.
This new equipment allows students to explore everything from scriptwriting to filming and editing. It’s more than just new technology; it’s a way to amplify student voices and encourage collaboration, innovation, and confidence in front of and behind the camera
