Media Workshop Services

Read about our Program Evaluations!

Media Workshop's approach to new media and technology integration is grounded in student-centered, collaborative and inquiry-based strategies for teaching and learning. Emphasizing three main areas -- professional development, youth development and curriculum development -- we strive to assist all schools and organizations we work with in finding unique and creative ways in which media and technology can enhance instruction and learning, as it relates to academic excellence and the integration of performance standards where applicable.

Professional Development: Technology can be intimidating. Educators are often expected to integrate new materials, new technologies and new ways of thinking and learning into their curricula without the benefit of preparation, time to learn and experiment, or a community of fellow learners with whom to share their experiences. Our professional development services are tailored to the individual school and teachers' needs, using a model that is holistic and flexible. Our approach focuses on what educators already teach; we collaboratively work with them to find unique and creative ways in which technology can support instruction.

Youth Programs: Our summer and after-school programs engage youth in finding ways in which media and technology support creative expression as well as develop a deeper understanding of specific subject matter.

Curriculum Development: Working with content-area teachers and experts, we collaboratively develop standards-based curriculum units, exercises and learning activities that use media and technology to support instruction.
