I like the idea of having the students create their own videos about historical events.

Using videos of mitosis and meiosis allowed me show the processes to the students multiple times, to slow down and pause during each phrase, and pick and choose which phases to focus on (Bell & Bull, Digital Video and Teaching, 2010).ĭigital Video and Teaching (2010) offers examples of many other ways that videos can help with instructional topics. Instead the students should learn the lesson with the teacher first so they have knowledge of what they are watching. Digital Video and Teaching (2010) states that the video content should be aligned with the instructional goal of the lesson and that the students should not watch the videos first. After reading the section I had my students watch two videos on mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis and meiosis are difficult topics to explain and even more difficult for students to understand. Last week I started teaching my students about cell division and mitosis and meiosis. According to Digital Video and Teaching (2010), students are uses videos as the first point of reference when they have questions about a new topic. Videos should not be a go-to for everything, but it is a great way to help students to learn. Videos are a great tool to use in a classroom when they are not the only tool a teacher uses. I was thinking of it being used with math vocabulary or reviewing science and animal adaptations (or many other science topics). Word Cloud, or Woordle, is a great tool to use in the classroom. I enjoyed looking over Word Cloud and hovering over words to bring up what context the word was used in and how many times it was used. KeepVid would be a great way to make sure my students still have access to the videos that I have searched and picked for them. Where I work, the computers sometimes slow down when multiple teachers are using the internet.

I liked the idea of KeepVId, where I can download any video and then I can upload it to any other computer, even if there is not internet access. This module helped me to learn about more technological tools that are out there, that I had never even heard of before. I plan on using my comic book in the classroom and I think my students would enjoy reading it, but I do not know how I could create projects like that on a continual basis. Technology can also be time consuming and create extra work. Technology can be a wonderful thing and it can add fun and excitement to the classroom. I searched and searched but I could not find my original assignment and I had to redo the assignment. The next day I went to pull up the assignment in Word, but all I had was a blank lesson outline. Then I saved my work, exited out of Word, and went to bed. I had completed all of my references and the entire lesson plan, but one section. The book took a lot longer than I had thought that it would and then I started working on my lesson plan. I had to redo over an entire page and I started having to save the book after every picture or text blurb that I had added.

The software started freezing and it didn’t save some of my previous work. I had to find and download every picture that I would use in the comic book. I soon realized that the process was NOT painless. After I downloaded the software I couldn’t wait to get started. I went ahead and watched the online tutorial, which made the process look painless.

I had this vision of the Magic School Bus series and creating a smaller version of something like that……That is until I actually got started. I have a classroom of ten boys and every single one of them would love to read a comic book instead of a boring old science book. I was going through the module, reading about all of the different mini-projects, and I fell in love with the idea of doing a comic book. I started this module with great ideas and great expectations, as every teacher has when they believe that they have an idea that is going to work well in the classroom. What were your overall thoughts about these Mini Project technology tools for Mini Project 1? How do you seeing yourself using them with your students and in your classroom?
