In the spring of 2005, six AOIT students at Hoover High School participated in the NAF-Pearson Foundation pilot program. With the support of their instructor, Angela Kania, they then taught two history sections how to complete digital stories as part of a research project.
This approach to teaching and learning continues to grow at Hoover’s AOIT program. During the 2005–06 school year, English Instructor Valerie Woodfill introduced a similar project on Arthur Miller’s The Crucible. Students worked on individual projects, researching their topics, creating storyboards, recording voiceovers, and assembling short videos. Students focused on a range of subjects, from historical presentations to contemporary considerations of civil liberties.
