A common thread I've seen is that when a school or district is able to bring technology into their learning environments they forget to also plan in training time and provide a solid support system. A teachers says, "Wow,! That looks cool but I do...
Cheryl,
When Eric and I put together this video, we geared it toward an elementary level audience. However, I have used it with middle school students as part of an introduction to iMovie projects using their MLTI laptops (see more resources for ...
This is a great promo for things to come. What grade level will you use this with? What kind of cameras will you use? I love MSAD 71 TV!

Thanks so much for posting it here.

Designed to get elementary level students interested in an after school program, this short video looks at the basic steps to making your own movie. Start off with a plan (or storyboard), then have a script with actors and props picked out. Rememb...

Profile Information
- Tell us about yourself!
- I am the Technology Integration Specialist for grades 6-8 in Regional School Unit #21, Arundel/Kennebunk/Kennbunkport. I service as the district contact person for information regarding Interactive White Board technology and am currently working on a 3-year plan to place interactive SMART Boards into every classroom in the district, grades K-12. I see teachers as storytellers, and boy are there a lot of stories for us to tell. I believe technology can enrich this process and help teachers to reach a student population that is infinitely diverse and always changing.

-Inform students about how to be safe on the Internet.
-Improve Internet research skills.

- Hi Nick,
With your work in Technology, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording you might find of interest.

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

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...
