Marin Academy
Mini-Course Video Projects

Marin Academy sponsors a one week Mini-Course each year in the Spring. Students have the opportunity to explore the outdoors, cook food, learn about and do art projects, and a number of other activities designed to provide an experiential moment outside the confines of the traditional classroom experience.

We often teach a video production Mini-Course. This page provides links to some of the work done by students in these Mini-Courses. Each year also includes a selection of online resources to help learn about the topics covered that year.

Enjoy!

2006 - GREEN YOUR VIDEO How Schools Can Help Save the World
by Brad Lakritz


Here’s your chance to have fun, make a difference in the world, and learn all at the same time. Students spent one week documenting exciting projects other students are initiating to make their schools more sustainable, including solar power, organic food, fair trade clothing, eco-friendly transportation and green building projects. The video will be used nationwide to encourage other groups to “green their school.” You can read more about the project and see the video here: GREEN YOUR VIDEO
