Description

The project is needed to increase the production of educational videos for primary and secondary schools. This will make learning and teaching at schools more interesting and therefore pupils more engaged and motivated to learn. The current challenge is that the quality education is not available for all because of inequality of teachers. The scientific subjects are the hardest for pupils. Silmaring is trying to relieve this through production of educational videos available for all teachers and pupils to use. The objective of this project is to acquire the necessary video equipment, increase the amount of volunteers and to prepare them to produce these videos. The aim is to produce 50 videos for the beginning of the school year and establish a continuous system for video production involving volunteers. The role of two partners is to consult Silmaring to successfully recruit, train and lead volunteers in the process.

Summary of project results

The objective was to increase the capability of video production of NGO Silmaring. During the project 16 new volunteers were recruited, equipment was purchased, and production processes were established. 50 videos were produced and published on the web. Recruiting-training cycle of new volunteers will be continued 3 times a year to increase the production volume. Feedback from teachers and students about the videos was also asked during the project. The main benefit was starting the video production process to make free educational videos for Estonian students.
