Online Tool 'PrimaryAccess' Lets Youth Make Documentaries; Research Will Examine How Much New Technology Enhances Student Learning in Social Studies
Middle and high school students are making their own short documentaries, thanks to the University of Virginia’s Curry Center for Technology and Teacher Education. Center co-director Glen Bull, professor of instructional technology, and research scientist Bill Ferster of the Curry School of Education have developed a Web-based application, PrimaryAccess, which allows teachers and students to tap into original materials archived on the Internet through institutions, such as the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
PrimaryAccess offers teachers another tool to bring history alive
PrimaryAccess, supported by a $154,000 grant from the Jessie Ball duPont Fund. At least 20 teachers and up to 600 middle school students will take part in the study.
We want to assess the affect of using multimedia to incorporate primary source documents into social studies teaching to see if it influences learning outcomes,” Bull said. The study will look at experimental and control groups in middle and secondary social studies classes
Tools that allow students to learn visually as well as verbally can significantly enhance learning when coupled with appropriate pedagogy
U.Va. center is working on to explore innovative digital technologies for K-12 education. Other projects target math, science and language arts. See the center’s Web site at http://www.teacherlink.org, or go to http://www.primaryaccess.org. At the PrimaryAccess Web site, click on “Make Movie”

and log in as “Guest.” Follow the three steps from there.
