Students in Third Grade are the first to use our ProScope. They wanted to see the various rocks that we had in class magnified and scaled! It was a great adventure! What is a ProScope???The ProScope HR is the first true high resolution digital microscope in the world. Using a custom Aptina imager is the key to providing true resolution up to 1280X1024. Made in our facilities in Oregon, the ProScope HR has been seen on CSI, CSI: NY, CSI: Miami, NCIS, Oprah, and 10 feature films since it emerged in 2006. Those first models are still solving crimes, educating students, examining patients and quality testing 39% of all technology made today. Images taken with our ProScope - Rocks Unit!Students participating with the December "Q Dollars" Club were excited to be the first to use the Green Screen. They took pictures as a group and in various poses. To their surprise, they were placed in various scenes unveiled at our December Community Meeting! They LOVED seeing themselves on the Big Screen! Check out their adventures! Green Screen and the Polar ExpressOn our first day back from Christmas Vacation in January, the students also had a chance to take a ride on the Polar Express! Not only did they do activities throughout the day that had to do with the movie, but they had their picture taken using the Green Screen. They were put onto the cover of the book with the magical train! Here are a few highlights! |
