WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: What is TMH?
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: High school broadcasts are important because they provide students with invaluable hands-on experience in communication and technology, foster strong community ties by connecting families and alumni, and serve as a vital tool for school marketing and fundraising efforts. By engaging students and the wider community, broadcasts offer practical learning opportunities in media, journalism, and technical production while enhancing school pride and support.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: Over the next few weeks you will learn all about TMH and be quizzed on who, what, where, when and why!
