Week three has come and almost gone. This week was looking at video technology and using it in the classroom. I have students in a video production course that create several videos throughout the semester. Some have specific requirements while others are flexible. The students enjoy doing them especially the creativity aspect of them. That is an often mentioned part they enjoy.
I have often thought of having other classes create videos but haven't tried it much. It always seems to just a bit more involved than I really want to do. There are also technical aspects that make it challenging such as sound control. My current engineering and robotics courses will be doing more with video. I started documenting their works last year, and will continue this year. Robotics will tape their robots as they complete their challenges. Engineering course will use screenr to record how to use the software. These are some valuable tools that will make learning more fun and more real.
