I still find it hard to believe how fast the last session of class went. I really enjoyed working with the desk top publishing. I had a fabulous time playing with the images and image editing. I had used this program numerous times previously for personal use and in class with my students. However, I did not realize all it has to offer for personal use and the possibilities for classroom use are endless.
I also left the last class totally excited with the urge to grab my digital camera and start snapping pictures. The movie maker session was wonderful. I really enjoyed taking my pictures and turning them into a movie. I think movie making may turn into a passion. I recently had my students do a research project on historical characters from Medieval History. Many of the students wore costumes as they presented their projects. I plan to take the pictures from this project and turn them into a movie for my student’s viewing pleasure.
Just as I began developing a passion for movie maker, I was introduced to Photo Story 3. I think a monster has been created and given a new way to “scrapbook”. My family and friends already tease me about all the pictures I take. Well, they haven’t seen anything yet because this is truly a user friendly program and I plan to make my digital camera smoke from all the use it will be getting. I think all these technology programs will work well in supporting my vision for integrating technology into the classroom in a fun and interesting way.
Oh, by the way, did I mention I am a grandmother? Well, if not, here is a sample of my new way to scrapbook or is it bragbook that I created with Photo Story 3. Enjoy!
