Displaying Students' Work on Campus with a Digital Display

Displaying results of student work in dynamic visual forms helps build excitement, culture and a welcoming feel for any campus.  Many campuses have chosen to display messages with digital screens - so why not also include student work?

In an article published by Principal Melinda Miller of Willard East Elementary on The Principal Blog, several key points can provide a really effective way to display students' work digitally. 

Melinda shares the following ideas:

Sharing Work in a Slide Show with a USB:
*Convert the work into photo files (.jpg) and create an Image slide show on USB! Ba-Bam! This has worked best so far.

Workflow:
*If just displaying pictures, I put on USB and plug into TV, DONE.
*Teachers share their own Google presentations or share student Google presentations.
*I download and save as pictures, put pictures on USB, DONE. I don't have to worry about connection issues all day. 

These additional ideas are excellent as solutions for video projects.
