A video can be very useful in a classroom. the teacher can easily download one from the internet but whats the fun in that. the videos from the internet maybe of higher quality but a video created by the teacher will better describe what he/ she would love to discussing in his/her lesson. videos can be created in windows movie maker or a movie maker soft ware can be downloaded from the internet. Videos manually created can improve the class room instruction in the following ways:
- allows teachers to use pictures and clips students can relate to
- teachers can allow student to collect images and clips to create a video for them self as a class activity(depends on the class and stage of development)
- students will be more interested in the videos the teacher created than those downloaded from the internet
- the video can be used to bring the excitement to students. (if students are not able to visit a specific destination the teacher can use a video to bring the destination to students. taking students on a field trip without leaving the classroom).
- the video can be used to give instructions and guidelines
- the video can be used to incorporate ASSURE model lesson plan
Reflection
for this piece we had to create a movie. the movie was created in windows movie maker and publish it to the blog. the piece will be used in the classroom as a exercise to identify business in Antigua. the piece will be shown within the classroom discussion when i am going to demonstrate different types on business. in creating this piece i faced some challenges:
- finding appropriate picture
- understanding how to incorporate images
- getting the appropriate music
- getting the music to fit my piece
- posting video to blog
the piece could have been improved in the following ways:
- placing more images and less word in piece
- using more familiar business places
- shorter video
- better organization of video
