This month we want to focus on helping students become Creative Communicators, where students communicate clearly and express themselves creatively for a variety of purposes using the platforms, tools, styles, formats and digital media appropriate to their goals.

Adobe has many different tools that students can use to create - starting with the basics in Adobe Express and working their way up to more advanced programs like Adobe Audition, Premiere Pro, or Photoshop. Regardless of the tool used, there are some key elements that are at the heart of any communication - like connecting with the audience.

Check out this blog post from Adobe Express about storytelling in video for some inspiration on how to help your students start to share their stories in creative ways!

March is UCET month! We are celebrating by focusing on the Big 6 partners and the newest updates from the UCET conference, March 19th & 20th at the Salt Palace.

One big update we want to share about Adobe is the Adobe Podcast tool. Head over to podcast.adobe.com to check out this awesome resource. Students can now record and edit audio directly from their chromebooks without the need for downloading complicated programs or using advanced equipment.

If you've never done any sort of audio project with students before, check out this podcasting with students guide from NPR, or feel free to reach out to our team for ideas on how to start!
