Greek Gods Machinima Mashup:
Mythical Meets Virtual World
Two Separate Projects
Two Separate Goals
One Excellent Opportunity for Collaboration!
6th graders needed film clips to construct political ads for Greek gods.
8th graders needed a focus for their machinima club.
The result was an extraordinary collaboration between
8th graders exlporing new technologies &
6th graders developing media literacy skills.
Together they created something truly unique...
