Teacher: Mr. Sheridan
University of St. Thomas
 
  Class of 2012

 
  Mr. Sheridan took students from the class of 2012 on a nine-day trip to Utah, where they challenged themselves both as individuals and as a team. Upon their return to school, the students worked in groups to capture the experience in digital stories. First, they wrote and recorded verse and raps that sometimes described their travels in concrete detail and at other times used the experience as a metaphor for their journey to adulthood. Then, by combining the voiceovers with photographic images, titles, and effects, the students created stories that are as vivid as Utah's landscape.
