'Deaf Create'on You Tube





I have uploaded a selection of films made over the last year that exemplify the use of new media at Thomas Tallis Deaf Support Centre. Some are polished, some are filmed, edited and uploaded within the hour lesson - the main thing is the films give some sense of what can be achieved. Click on the link and you can browse the films

So what is 'Deaf Create"?


So what is 'Deaf Create'? Deaf Create is a blog forum for interested parties and participants in a new scheme set up by Greenwich Deaf Advisory Service. The Deaf Support Centre at Thomas Tallis School have, over the past year , been experimenting with using new media technologies to support their deaf students, and it seemed a good idea to share their experiences and knowhow with other schools and units across the borough that support deaf students. To make this happen three primary schools, a secondary school and a post-16 college have been included in the plan to create a pathway for using new media from early years education to post-16. I hope that this blog will allow all the different participants to share their work, technical difficulties, solutions and successes, as well as creating an archive of examples of new media in action.
