  1. 8th Grade Industrial Arts Home/Hospital Bound Unit on Digital Photography STEVE MCCRODDEN AND RYAN MESTER INDUSTRIAL ASSISTANCE “Bringing Education to All Students Everywhere”

  2. Rationale The reason we have created this module is because we are sensitive to the needs of all students, not just to the students that attend a regular school and learn in a traditional setting. Students might have to miss extended amount of school for various reasons. We want to provide them with a unit they can do on their own with no time constraints as far as due dates. We also see the importance of students having multiple classes available to them, not just their core subject areas. Our month long digital photography can be considered an art class or industrial technology class. We want to make sure the student can experience as much of school as possible and not just the core subjects. http://staff.bbhcsd.org/mccroddens/edu518

  3. Training WHAT DO I NEED TO KNOW AS A TEACHER, PARENT, OR AIDE WHO WILL BE WORKING WITH A HOME OR HOSPITAL BOUND STUDENT?

  4. Training Industrial Assistance will take the necessary time to put all those involved at ease as they work through certain asynchronous and synchronous online classroom learning environments. At the same time, Industrial Assistance will be a steady guide for both expert and novice teachers when it comes to putting together activities and assignments for Home/Hospital Bound students. GUARANTEED!
