Amplifying Student Voice
Amplifying Student voice is a focus of their own cultural frame of reference with critical thinking tools with students acting on their potential to produce the high intellectual performances that can motivate self-directed learning, self-actualization, and self-transcendence.
“Students must have initiative; they should not be mere imitators. They must learn to think and act for themselves, and be free.”
—Cesar Chavez

As a Film Director, Videographer, Editor and Producer
Video as part of the learning process has been part of Robert’s collaborations since having students (first, second and third grades) use VHS tapes to see themselves presenting. This continues since then and into the present with many of the examples on this site.
The documentary captures the efforts of the educators and community improving student achievement levels through a focus on thinking, and becoming the top performing school district in Mississippi which they continue to sustain even after the devastating impact of Hurricane Katrina.

Documentation Websites for NUA
The purpose has been two-fold: to qualitatively document the implementation of NUA initiatives with school districts, and to create a place and platform for whole district participation. There are three examples I developed, created and incorporated many of my examples of documentation:
- Redwood City School District, CA;
- Newark, NJ;
- Osseo Area Schools, MN.
