In a project at Fall Creek Elementary School, funded by IPEI, students in Caitlin Baxter's 5th grade class produced these videos to support the KDT! experience of all grade level students. The goal was to allow 5th graders to use technology to create science movies that promote reading and books. The class was divided into 6 groups of 3 or 4 students. Each group picked a Kids Discover the Trail! destination as a theme. Students were told their videos would be available for classes to watch before going on their grade level’s field trip. With a defined audience in mind, the students created a video plan that included an interesting beginning, a book read-aloud, an interview, additional book reviews and a conclusion.
Gary Stewart of Cornell Community Relations hosts the weekly cable television show, East Hill TV. In May 2009, his guests were from the Discovery Trail in celebration of the trail's 10th Anniversary. Kids Discover the Trail! is a collaboration of IPEI, ICSD, and the Discovery Trail.
