[CASL-L] Film strip conversion to digital

[Tracy Earnshaw]

My gut response was to just throw the filmstrip out, but I know some
teachers get attached to teaching materials that have worked well for
years.  I used to have an attachment for my flatbed scanner that would scan
old-fashioned slides.  I wonder if it would do the same for film strips?
It might be worth trying on a scanner even without a special attachment.
If you could scan one square at a time and make them jpegs, you could make
a slide show and add in the audio.

Best of luck!
