Week 6

We didn't have class this week so...we just worked together as a group to get our audio done. It was pretty easy to get on their and now we just need to clip it and add sound effects and we will be done.

Week 5

I think the hardest part to this project is staying on task and making decisions as a group. The actual making of the project isn't too bad. Everyone has so many good ideas and we have to narrow it down to one. We just want to make the best project we can and it is hard to just go with an idea rather than sitting for hours coming up with more ideas.

I thought the "Did You Know?" was very interesting. It was cool to see how fast things have exploded in recent years. It is also kind of scary to have computers smarter than the human race. I don't think computers should be able to take over the world. We still need the basics or reading and writing and even communication skills. It is so exciting to live in a time that has so much to offer it is also kind of scary.

"A Vision Of Students Today" was kind of funny to me. I think it can say either of two things. They students today are lazy and don't do all their work or that teachers are giving them too much to do that really does not help them in the real life. I thought it was a good video and gives people a lot to think about.

Week 4

This week was an intro to digital storytelling. I liked watching all the educational videos that teachers made. It was really interesting working in groups to create a story board and pictures to go along with it. I think coming up with what was going to happen and when was probably the hardest part. This will be great to use in classroom to have a video say exactly what you want it to say. I could also use it to make a class video and have the students involved.

This weeks video was very effectively done. I thought they did a great job at portraying NASA. I think it would be great in a history lesson when talking about the cold war or even if you wanted to do a little lesson on NASA.
