Briefly describe the student project:

The student projectraise money for the school to get wonderful gadgets and give
students a chance to express them selves and bring out there inner creativity and
ability to shine. The media center will provide school with up-to-date equipment for
students to use, as long they are supervised by teachers. It will give students a
chance to learn new things to compete in today's world.

This project will give students a chance to get projects going and express
themselves, (example: give options to help them figure out what they will like in
middle school).

It will also help you gain more confidence in your abilities with electronics (like film-
making).

What leader skills will you learn/develop from the project:

1.A leadership skill that students will learn, is to be more responsible.

2. Students and staff could learn, is how to cooperate with each other.

3. Another skill you could learn is for students and staff to develop up-to-date
skills.

and be the best you that you can be.
5. Everyone should learn to encourage one another more often.

6..Being a leader is also making new friends worldwide and connect with them over
the internet (video chats, email).

7.To learn how to organize and to become more confident in your public speaking
abilities by asking classes or asking students in an assembly to help contribute by
donating costumes/props (old clothing).

8.To get the courage to try new things, think outside of the box and step out of your
comfort zone.

Describe how your project will be innovative/creative:

It could be an entire new class! Like an option for Probe or it could be a

Club that teaches Film/movie-making [also includes editing], Drama, Behind-the-

scenes crew, animation and photography. it can also teach everyone proper
handling of technology, which would be great for probe kids.

It will give new chances for students to develop more student responsibility like
helping take care of the electronics.

How could you involve a business partner in the project:

Helping them make commercials almost like having a partner and we could also

get sponsored it will also be easyto

help out the community. we could make commercialsfor the company's that
sponsorus including 1 school 1 book, Max, west family dental, scholastics and more
businesses that sponsor us and would be interested in participating.

How would you know if your project is successful?

I think we will know if this project is successful if students have fun and learn how
to take care of our new technology .
