I don't teach film-making, I teach language. But Marco Torres in… Continue

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

Camilla, I agree with Cheryl - go see Serena Offcourse on Blackbear Island. She's great and knows all the ins and outs. She's got great style sense too! --Sarah (Syra Saeed in SL, edueyeview on twitter)
Give it a go!I am still falling down. Look for Serena Offcourse at Black Bear Island, she is my fashion consultant and very helpful.

I'm @edubeacon on Twitter. Your recent Seedlings podcast has me thinking of giving Second Life another go. On there I'm Millie Brink - on the brink and very much the amateur!

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...

Thanks for the input on detention. I like the way you think. However, we have teachers assigned to detention and they want absolutely no contact with the students. They are to come to detention with work or a book and not speak at all. We are in our trial stages of detention and we haven't met to discuss how it's gone so far but I think this is a mandatory disciplinary action we all need to take as teachers to make sure the students know we are serious about education and providing the best to all students without distraction that gets out of control.
I'm from Woodland (04736).
Take care,
Jill
