    This course is perfect for creative students who love to tell stories in a variety of ways; writing, video, podcasting, and photography will all be covered during our time together this summer. This is a great opportunity for students to "test drive" the Multimedia Communication Pathway during the summer by getting a taste of what we do in multimedia courses during the school year. This will also give students who don't have room in their schedules to take Introduction to Multimedia Communication during the school year the chance to learn the skills they’ll need to jump right into their school's extra-curricular multimedia programs. Students entering grades 10-12 should bring their district-issued iPads; new students will receive their iPads on the first day of class.
