Upper Level Graphics is a model example of Differentiated Instruction. At any given time, nearly every student is working on a completely different project than their classmates. Case in point – on 9/26 during 5th period students were working on the following projects:

  1. Creating Yearbook spreads from scratch using Adobe InDesign
  2. Advanced Layer Blending and Masking in Adobe Photoshop
  3. Putting the finishing touches on a cover for a mock up of the Boys Varsity Basketball Program.
  4. Editing footage using Green Screen for video to be broadcasted throughout the school and community
  5. Creating Instructional Tutorials using screen capture to help beginning level students learn how to create and edit Vector Graphics using Adobe Illustrator
