S3 Campus Reporter for Castlebrae High School
Edinburgh University, McEwan Hall, Reception Room
This event is open to all volunteers but is particularly well suited to those volunteers who are familiar with Edinburgh University’s George Square area. The meeting place is Edinburgh University’s McEwan Hall (reception room, upstairs). You can come along to whole event from 9-12 or the first part from 9-11.15. Just decide on the day!If you would like to sign up for this one please email me on claire.aitchison@ed.ac.uk.
For a short description of the event please see below.
The S3 Campus Reporter event involves you showing a small group of pupils around the university campus while assisting them with their task which is to record a short 1 minute film clip, using hand-held video cameras about a topic connected to university and student life.After a short break mid way through the event the pupils return to the ‘news room’ and we run the TV news show complete with star presenters from the school and featuring all their news clips. For many pupils it is there first time on a university campus and possible first time they have met a student so they generally love it! Your role is to share your own experiences re university life and also help them find out everything they need to in order to film their short clip.It’s dead easy and a lot of fun.
Being familiar with Edinburgh is not absolutely essential as you will be accompanied round campus by a LEAPS member of staff and we also pair up volunteers where possible.So far the following volunteers have signed up for this one;
Veny Lu.
Radoslaw Ko.
