The cliffs of Hurricane creek
are a rare and beautiful rock formation in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
When a high school biology class discovered the cliffs of
Hurricane Creek were about to be destroyed to make way for
a new bypass, they made a movie to save the cliffs. Their
movie shows the people of their community what a rare a
beautiful place the cliffs are - and how moving the bypass
1800 feet would save the cliffs for future generations.
This movie is a good example of how classroom video can
help students learn biology, civics, botany, geology and
history all in the process of making one movie.
Produced by students from Tuscaloosa County High School,
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, in conjunction with Sierra Club.
