- Questions
- Digital Video Warmup
- Watch http://site.aace.org/video/books/teaching/science/science3.cfm
- The two sounds you hear are
- the sound from the pots clanging together as recorded from the video camera at various distances away
- the same sound transmitted over a two-way radio directly to the location of the video camera
- In groups of three or four, discuss the following questions
- Which sound do you hear first?
- Why don't you hear the sounds at the same time?
- Why is one sound at almost exactly the same time as what you see on the video camera?
- What are other examples of this phenomenon?
- How could you reproduce this video with your class?
- Any other videos you could create or have your students create demonstrating the same concept?
- Video Repository
- Get a YouTube account if you don't already have one (YouTube is not necessary, but it makes it easy)
- Install something to help you download videos from the Web
- Develop your video repository
- snippets that illuminate points for your students
- take them yourself with camera
- take screenshots
- collect them from the Web (instructional videos or non-instructional videos that help demonstrate a point)
- use Safari Montage, Discovery Education, or whatever your school system pays for
- store them locally to avoid filters (or remember to download them from home before you need them)
- Check out iPod Touch or use your own video camera (available for checkout)
- Create two videos (quick and dirty) with a video camera that demonstrate a point for your students (any subject area)
- Find two video segments online that you can use with your students
- Create two screencasts to use with your students
- Put your videos or links to your videos in the ET620 Video Repository, giving the entire class permission to use them
- Your own videos can be loaded into the folder
- Links to all videos should be placed in the spreadsheet
- Multimedia Theory
- Why Have Students Create Multimedia Projects (from Agnew and Kellerman)
- Encourages active construction of knowledge, rather than passive receiving of information
- Encourages collaborative efforts
- Uses multiple sensory modalities
- "Student-created projects are beneficial, in addition because
they often involve substantial work, open-ended assignments,
theme-based activities, and knowledge and experiences that the students
draw from a wide variety of sources."
