ASB Adds New Pre-Workshop Software Training

The 2017 ASB Workshop for broadcast and video teachers will for the first time provide a day of hands-on training on the Adobe Premiere editing software.

This optional session will run from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 9 at Hillcrest High School.  At the same time, Final Cut Pro X training will be offered as it has in the past, during the same exact hours at Hillcrest.  The actual workshop begins at 6 p.m. on the 9th, also at HHS.

"We are happy to add the new training, and think it will really help more teachers have a great week at the workshop," said ASB Business Manager Martha Davis, who reminds teachers that they can sign up for either optional session during the regular workshop registration process.

While the workshop can provide editing computers for Final Cut Pro X, teachers who opt for the Adobe Premiere session are reminded they must provide their own software and laptop for that training.

Dave Davis

Dave Davis started a Broadcast Journalism class at Hillcrest High School in the fall of 1989. Since then, the school's student-produced show, "HTV Magazine," has become one of the nation's most-honored high school broadcasts.

In an effort to provide valuable, useful, hands-on instruction to broadcast teachers from across the nation, Davis founded ASB Workshop in the summer of 2000. Since then, the week-long workshop has provided training for hundreds of high school and middle school teachers from 47 states, plus Mexico, England, South Korea, and Japan.

In the spring of 2009 he was named the Springfield (MO) Public Schools Teacher of the Year. He lives in Springfield with wife Martha, and has two daughters who live and work in the area.
