57. Your Assignment
• In groups (we only have 4 cameras), each individual
will use 3 words to convey their thoughts about
education.
• Be creative!
• Be patient in your groups to film each other. The
clips should not be more than 7 or 8 seconds long.
• Bring the camera to me when you are
done. We’ll watch a compilation video
at the end of the day.
