Project idea

Not sure what else to say for my project idea. I think I'll do what I have planned about having the kids make videos of themselves...I think they'll enjoy doing that project and I think they'll get a lot out of it. I'm looking forward to doing this project with them and seeing the cool videos they'll come up with. Now the only problem is, do the school's computers have windows movie maker on them so I can actually show them how to use it, or am I going to have to make handouts about it. And for kids with macs, how to tell them how to use imovie, because I don't think I will have time to let them do much of this project in class. Dilemma. I don't give this project until the end of the semester anyway, though, so I'll have time to work out those details, I guess.

  1. I think it will be great to see the videos they create for this project. I bet they will get into it and enjoy making something different. If the school computers don't have the movie making programs could you show them from your computer? You could always do a little bit each day and break apart the process, especially since you won't do the project until the end of the semester.

  2. You are going to give these students a great opportunity to do something that they are really going to enjoy. This is the type of activity that may point one of the students down a career path if they find that this is something that they really enjoy and are good at it.
