My Project

My students are working on building a database that showcases different career paths. These are short little interviews with adults in various fields. One area that they are trying to bring more light to is Non-Traditional Career Paths. What is considered Non-Traditional is decided by our state. They are working to gather more interviews in this area so students can have access to real words from real people.

Using their phones, students are prepared to capture an interview at any time, but the audio needs work.

The DJI Mic allows for students to quickly add professional quality audio to their video in seconds. This enhances the overall quality of the project and makes it more appealing to viewers. Our goal is to inform our student body and the community about what different career paths are like, especially ones deemed non-traditional, and we are doing that one interview at a time.
