June 7, 2010

Scroll down to watch LookBermuda’s recently launched “Riddle of the Crest” full 30 minute film, which is the first in a series of educational films. Thedocumentary features Dr. Philippe Rouja, Bermuda’s Custodian of Historic Wrecks, along with Bill Gillies, Dr. Steve Blasco, Teddy Tucker and Dr. Edward Harris. The film explores the ship depicted on the Bermuda coat of arms.

Minister of Education Elvin James said, “This first film will make a wonderful resource for teachers at all levels of our school system. The Riddle of the Crest has it all – it teaches history, demonstrates scientific research, provides insight into Bermuda’s natural history and raises awareness of Global Warming. We look forward to continuing the process of developing a strategic partnership with LookBermuda – a partnership that will produce the best results for our students.

LookBermuda has other films in development, with topics includin the Sea Venture, the Sargasso Sea and a series of Environmental films with more to follow on an ongoing basis.

LookBermuda has been working closely with the Department of Education’s Curriculum Team to identify ways to create localized content that is captivating whilst still meeting teaching objectives. The organization says that the films are an ideal learning tool for today’s media minded student.

Going forward, teaching modules and lesson plans will be developed and distributed alongside the films, fine-tuned to suit the needs for both the public and private schools, and for ease of access will be distributed via an online Bermuda video streaming platform that LookBermuda is developing for that purpose.
