Hi! I'm applying to be a Google Certified Teacher. I had seen some posting on here last year where other Google Certified Teachers gave comments on applicants' videos. I would love some feedback! Here's the link to my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMFSBsfCEQc

I had problems in one area where the volume goes down and I know it has something to do with the transition that is right after it. I deleted this section and put it in again, but am still having problems. I created this in imovie '08, if anyone has any suggestions. We I go into the link in youtube it also seems to be playing very slow-hope it's just my connection speed and not another problem.

Any feedback would be great! Thanks!

WOW! I love how you used your kids in the movie. The only thing I can suggest about the sound (I think you can do this in iMovie '08) is in the sound bar at the bottom, you can adjust the volume with a little line. If you drag the line up, it will increase the volume. Good luck with your application!

Thanks Alice! I appreciate the feedback. I will try adjusting the volume! Thanks again!

I think that this looks great also. I like the personal story. It seems like I know you and understand why you want to go.

Thanks Janice! I have a different backstory than most teachers and felt that needed to be explained. Let's see what happens!

I decided not to apply this time, but next time I am going to plan to get my video done early enough to be viewed, critiqued and edited. Last time people saw some things that now I realize I should have edited, but I just didn't have time.

Thanks for the help. I didn't get accepted for the DC session. Maybe next time!

Maybe we will meet there sometime! The DC one was too soon and not a good time for me... So we will both keep trying!

Hi, Alice. Like you, I find the gifts feature much too silly and Facebook-like. You can easily remove it by clicking the "remove the gifts feature" link from the Gifts icon on your Manage page. Cheers.

Give option 3 a try, Bob. Not sure if that will work forever, but it may work for now.

I haven't run in to the match ads, so maybe they were short lived. I do wish they would get rid of the gift thing, I looked through the management options, and couldn't figure out how to turn it off. Anyone else know how? @Sheri: The problem with W…

Clare, Why on earth would the teachers be asked to stop blogging? Are they asked to stop having conversations? Are they asked to stop writing about things that matter to kids? How are teachers supposed to disregard one of the major communication for…

We had strong interest - and a great start - among our third grade teachers to have their students begin blogging (mainly around literacy) - blogging in the hands of these talented teachers couldn't be more valuable, in my opinion. Then our administ…
