I tried to create a podcast using my webcam and realized I actually had a video. So I tried to upload it to blip.tv and failed. (I really didn't become computer saavy until I turned 30, so I'm doing well for my age).
So, I changed my mini-project for week 4 to a digital story book. Since I had lots of photos from our recent trip to Thailand, I made it into a story. It has taken about 12 hours to complete around my full-time job, thus the reason is is being posted, essentially, Thursday morning, my time.
I had lots of fun making it. I plan to show this digital story in my ESL Religion class to show them what a digital story book is. Then, I will have them choose a topic within a category that I'll specify and they will have to collect the pictures, create the power point, write the script, record and re-record the narration, find and download a sound file and convert it to MP3 format, and figure how to make the song play throughout the whole presentation. Then, they will present it in class and I and their fellow students will evaluate it. I can't wait to get started! Yes, this digital story is very usable in my classes.
