Electric December
Description
Inspiring stories about school projects that make a difference. Electric December gives primary and secondary schools the opportunity to work on challenging ICT and animation art projects alongside media professionals. The programme follows the experiences of a rural Primary and an urban Secondary school as they use video, animation techniques and Flash to create their animations. The teachers talk about the benefits to their pupils and how they too enjoy and obtain new skills from the collaborations.The initiative was created by Bristol's Watershed Media Group and is an online digital advent calendar which can be accessed via a website. In 2004, the calendar was launched with a live web conference between schools in Cornwall and Bristol where the children could ask each other questions.
