Before Class
If your group didn't finish the movie last Thursday, do the following
steps to export your movie after completion.
1) Choose File --> Share
2) Click QuickTime in the Toolbar on the top
3) You need to export twice for two different sizes of the file:
a. Choose Email from popup menu --> Use this file to link to your
google page
b. Choose CD from popup menu -->Use this file to show to the class
4) Choose Share
After you finish the exporting, you should have two files. Save them
in your USB drive. If you have any questions exporting, I will be in
Aderhold 30 minutes before the class.
Part I: Movie Time
Since you have already completed the movie in your group, we are
going to watch your work as a class. I know lots of you had great
time working with iMovie, this will be a good chance to share your
joyfulness with the others.
Part II: Explore Inspiration
Your understanding of learning theory and technology integration
is really starting to come together. In the beginning of the semester,
we learned technology tools can be used in conjunction with good
teaching strategies to address various learning styles and student
needs.Today we will be looking at visual learning software --
Inspiration and Kidspiration. Both tools allow PreK-12 students to see
a concept and its connecting themes and ideas. You'll create an
activity for your subject area/grade level. You'll need to find out
more information about Kidspiration and Inspiration software and
read more about the Kidspiration and Inspiration assignment before
getting started on your project.
View sample projects here. You can also view projects from former
EDIT 2000 students here.
Working with a partner, create a diagram in Inspiration similar to the
one shown in today's class. This will allow you to quickly learn the
basic features of Inspiration.
For Thursday:
Publish your iMovie page before class and send me the URL for
your iMovie page. (Subject for email: iMovie_your name). While you
are working on the iMovie page, details of the project is on
Class 13 blog post. Make sure you have include everything before you
send out the URL to me.
