Creating Movies With Students — from ipadsammy.com by Jon Samuelson
Excerpt:
“Here’s looking at you, Kid” – Presentation From BSD Future Ready Summit
Getting students started creating videos can seem like a daunting task. There isn’t enough time in the day to get your regular subjects done, how are you supposed to give students time to create videos? I am here to tell you it can be done. I hope that this post/presentation will provide what you need to get started.
Students can create videos on a variety within the context of what they are learning right now. Video story problem for math, a how to science experiment, or a book trailer that covers important story traits are all good ideas. Here is a list of apps, PDF Templates, and equipment that can be helpful when creating movies.
Good! I always endorse projects when the students have to do something themselves. It allows them to deeply understand the problem, instead of just scratching the surface.
Good call John. Active learning, hands-on learning, project-based learning, etc. — they all see to pursue the concepts of having students dig deeper, be creative, and struggle with the content a bit more (vs. just hearing/reading/regurgitating content to pass the test).
Thanks again John,
Daniel
