You Be The Producer is a series designed to help educators and their students learn about the process of putting together a classroom video from beginning to end. The concepts illustrated in the four programs include brainstorming an idea, writing a treatment, pitching an idea, creating a script, setting up a shoot, videotaping, editing scenes and producing a DVD.

Change My Mind is based on the concept that students will be bombarded with persuasive techniques in all aspects of their life. They need to recognize when persuasive techniques are being used and, in turn, how students can use them to try and persuade others. This project is directed at the persuasive writing process. The multimedia kit is keyed to grades 8-10 language arts standards and includes a teacher guide, five videos and a Web site.
