This short documentary was created by students at St Luke's Primary School, Northampton, England. Over 40 students, ages 5 to 11 participated over the course of a year to create this. They wrote the script, selected costumes, and acted in it - all under the guidance of their teacher. Their focus is on the impact of computers, social media and the internet on young people and they nailed it!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this and, when I learned how involved the students were from scripting it to performing, I was doubly impressed. The camera work, audio recording and editing are all outstanding. The background music is adequate - nothing stands out really. The graphics, however, do stand out - and the use of text enhances the presentation greatly. This is really impressive work and so timely.
I give Navigating the Net 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 12, plus adults. By Julie S, KIDS FIRST!
