To Bring Students To The Cutting Edge. But what is going on at Dr. Phillips High School, a visual performing arts magnet school in Orlando, Florida, restores faith in the power of committed teachers and students. Darlene Wolfe, a teacher for almost two decades, has been at Dr. Phillips for two years. She has used the latest technology to bring exciting learning opportunities to her students and the community. Students produce a video bulletin board viewed by students via a television monitor in every classroom and in the front office and attendance office.
Students post announcements and upcoming events on the bulletin board.
Students also utilize the Scala software in the production of television programming. Dr. Phillips has WDOC Channel 6 which includes the 5 minute daily Dr. Phillips High School News and Announcements. But Wolfe knew that she could do so much more with one of Scala's newer technologies. So when she started teaching at Dr. Phillips High School, Wolfe contacted Scala and told them what she was doing with the Scala software she had. Marc Rifkin, Scala's Director of Marketing, was impressed with how the students were utilizing the software, and donated Scala's iplay studio presentation and InfoChannel Designer software to Dr. Phillips and gave Wolfe permission to install the software on as many machines as necessary.
