Assignment 1

1. Do you know how to create a digital story using Movie Maker? If so, great! You will assist in teaching the class. If not, no problem. Find a video at teachertube or youtube for example that demonstrates the "how to" of using movie maker. Post your videos (if you're unable or not that techno savvy you can post the link) here.

2. The second step in this (the beginning of your final project) assignment is to locate a time period or historical figure or historical event and tell why this time period, event or person is of interest to you in 200 words or more.

This is an example of a digital story with narration, music and role-playing. Yours will have to be equally creative. If you would like extra credit for the technology component of the final project, you can substitute a podcast for the digital story. You will also have to instruct the class on how to create such podcasts.
