Week 7:

This week in class we created another movie using Window Media Maker. The movie was over the Conceptual Core, and how we would express the term. I found my photos online, and some of the pictures represented diversity, teacher and student interaction, and technology. This was one of my favorite assignments because this program was fun to work with. I was able to choose between several effects. For one normal picture I was able to add an old colored film effect to a picture of students working. We also got into groups, and created a two rubric. One rubric was over the Google site we created, and the other was over Wiki Space. These rubrics are benefical for us to make sure we have completed all the requirements.

For future use, as a teacher the rubric site will be very benefical. There are going to be many projects and assignments that will have certain requirements needed to be completed by the students. The video in Windows Media Maker could be fun for the students to express their creativity through picutres and music.

The ISTE standards met are:
Creativity and Innovation by building our own movies using pictures and music.
Technology Operations and Concepts are used when building the Rubrics because we used a website to build the rubrics.
Digital-Age learning experience and assessments by using new programs to better our use of technology.
