| The
digital videos in this collection are intended for use by anyone who wants
to study and observe expert practice in teaching. The videos in the collection
were shot in a first grade classroom of 28 students at Fort Caroline Elementary
School in Jacksonville, Florida. Fort Caroline is an 1100 student school
with grades K-5. The school has approximately 45 % "free and reduced
lunch" students. The school is located in a heterogeneous neighborhood
both in socioeconomic status and racially with approximately 60 % white
and 40 % black students. These videos were shot in late spring so many classroom
procedures have become "routinized." For best viewing, set your
monitor to 800 by 600 and use external speakers or a headphone. |
