Media Technology Week 1

This week we create a digital story. My topic was entitled "Who Am I?" . I found the creation of this digital story quite enjoyable. I learned that using interviews and story boards helps you to brainstorm and organize before creating. I used post its with a description of each picture above. I found the process to be quite easy and enjoyable. I learned that if you want a file to upload quickly post on You Tube. It took less than a minute to post. When I tried to post on Teacher Tube it said it could take up to twenty four hours. Once I uploaded it to You Tube it was only a matter of seconds to get it on my Wiki.


In fourth grade students create timelines with their baby pictures. I think it would be wonderful to use digital story telling to have students really think out the topic and details behind their pictures. You could also use it to create stories using images online or students acting out images. This is a wonderful way to enhance learning in the classroom.
