What?
This week we learned about Vidcasts. We also learned about this really cool program called PhotoStory. It's a really neat way to make slideshows and movies with music and captions.
So What?
I think this will be an excellent piece of knowledge that I will be using for the rest of my life. I have always wondered how people make those cute movies - and now I know how! I'll definitely be using Vidcasts for school assignments and projects I do on my own - maybe for a wedding or a family reunion or something like that.
Now What?
Vidcasts are fun. I think my future students will love viewing them and creating them. I also think it's a new great way for them to express themselves as well. I think it'll be fun to use Vidcasts in my classroom so that students can see a piece of my personal life while I teach - this way I'll become more real to them. It'll also be fun for me to see a bit of who they really are outside of school. One way I could use Vidcasts in my classroom could be a "Spotlight" type of project. Students could make a Vidcast instead of a poster to tell about themselves. All in all, I'm very excited about Vidcasts and can't wait to incorporate them in my classroom!
