1:45 Digital Media Arts (DMA) & Business PROMO

Many have asked, what do you do in your Digital Media Honors classes. So, with the help of one of my DMA extraordinaires, we put together a video that visually shows you some of the things we do/have done in these classes.

* We also do some amazing things in our Business courses (although it's a little more difficult to show in a video)... such as Product Design, Advertising Campaigns, Investing $, understanding $, overall general Business wisdom, Business ethics, Resume creation, computer skills, DECA, earn college credits, AND MORE.

Enjoy!

Occasionally, the Aztec Broadcast Channel will give the students and staff the opportunity to say/show/do anything they want (within reason) on camera... and we will put it in one of our monthly broadcasts. We call it "7 Seconds of Freedom".

Feel free to watch how it works.

Also, you can check old Broadcasts on Youtube (@ProfessorRuzzi) to see what other students have said and done. Here is one of the broadcasts with "7 Seconds of Freedom".
