One example of how a teacher could have his/her student use video technology would be to have them do Digital Book Reports. They have to pick out a theme of the book to present and relate to the audience as a whole. They should use pictures, narrations, and quotes from the book.
This book would most likely relate to high school students, but this project could work with any age level. One section of Utah's core curriculum is called "Comprehension of a Literary Text."
This assignment would help any grade focus on comprehending a literary text, but it would specifically help achieve 3a (identifying character, plot, etc.), 3b (analyzing characters and characterization), and 3c (identifying themes). These basic guidelines apply to grades seven through twelve.
I chose to do my video on The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This is an example of what a student might do:

Jessica,
ReplyDeletegreat video project, I really enjoyed it! My only feedback would be that it appeared the video didn't embed right because some of the material was off screen where we couldn't see it. Also, your credits were too fast and small, making it hard to read.
But overall, really good! I liked the narration halfway through from an audio version of the book. Nice touch.
