Teacher:
Part of our weekly timetable we have an activity slot which we run on a Thursday afternoon, and we started running an animation and video editing class, and one pupil in particular, who sometimes struggled to engage in a lesson and could get very frustrated very easily, has really, really put a lot of effort into his animations. He’s very keen on Dr Who, so he brought his models in from home and created a movie. Basically putting the models in, making them move, taking a photo, make the move, take a photo and so on and so on. And he built up a short movie of Dr Who and it’s absolutely brilliant. And he’s very keen to show off his work, whereas before he was, sort of, be a bit reluctant to engage. But now he’s shining through.
