4th Quarter Already!

Today is the end of the third quarter and I looking forward to creating at least 7 videos over the next few months. I am hoping that the next few videos will aid the students in reviewing for the final. I am specifically thinking that videos on the grammar portion of the final will be the best review for the students because a lot of them only need review of a few select topics. However, I will try to make a review video of each one so that I cover all of the topics.

Final grammar review

This week I used my outline forms to create my movies for the Final Grammar Review. I plan on reviewing about 7-10 topics and hope to have all of the videos posted by the last week of school. I am planning on also putting these videos on a blog style page, so that the students have a chance to comment and ask questions to help one another study. This is an extension of the study group page on my weebly.

My own reflection...

I know that I am not done with my work so far, but I wanted to begin thinking about my progress thus far. It seems to me that I needed a few weeks to get set up for this project. I thought that it would be difficult and annoying to create an imovie of each work that I wanted to create. Mostly because I would need to retype all of the information into the new movie. Plus the transitions and sounds really aren't necessary for all of the projects I am doing. I would love to try to create some of each. However, at this time it seems that Jing is the easiest most effective way to produce these review movies. The one negative I have found is that the Jing does not allow you to edit the video, so if you make a mistake while recording you have to do the whole thing over!!
