Digital Story as an educator

                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.
