Week #8

Well we are getting ready to make a video in class. It is supposed to be a short video, 30 to 90 seconds long and have a public service announcement message to it. Taking a look back, I guess there would have been many reasons to use video in my previous projects. Just the fact that when you use that kind of technology over and over again you will get more proficient. It doesn't have to be a long video either. As an Automotive Technology Instructor, I had to learn how to take what I have mastered and break it down into very small chunks. Some of those 'chunks' could be taught with the help of video taping. I find myself thinking about using diigo. I could use that technology to create a page that would contain some video links to YouTube. Classroom teaching, homework, and make-up work would good examples of how 'video taping' could be incorporated into my program.
