When I was creating this video
my main goal was to summarize all the wars that have occurred in the History of
the U.S. I am glad I learned how to use this program because now I know that
when I begin to teach History later in life, instead of putting a video of
maybe the American Revolution, I can create a digital story to present to my
class with facts and pictures and even cool music. This program can definitely
be a great help and can replace a simple PowerPoint presentations. I would use
this idea for instructional purposes. For learning I can ask my students to
create a presentation about a specific subject and I will let them create a
video or digital story for me as an assignment. Just as I had to learn how to
use such software I will help them learn. They will research information and
created into a video. This will help them adapt to technology and I will be
becoming a “modern” teacher. Sometimes in the beginning of classes on the first
day of school, students usually introduce themselves to the class I could make
them just create a simple digital story to summarize everything they have to
say and to make an introduction unique and fun.
