PSA: Why Recycle?

EDLD 5363 Web Conference (2)

I attended the web conference on Saturday December 3, 2011 at 10:00 am. I wanted to attend this conference because I didn’t understand how to complete the shot-list for week 3 assignment. After, Dr. Abernathy explained the shot-list I was able to complete it and send it to my group members. One of my peers also stated that every time the camera changes position; it was considered a different shot. Dr. Abernathy explained the importance of everyone working together to complete this assignment and said that each group should have a Google document that showed their collaboration. She also stressed that we should shared this document with our instructional associates. She made it clear that our PSA should only be 60 seconds and the credits should be at least 10 seconds long. At the end of the web conference Dr. Abernathy told us that she would add two more conferences on December 5 and December 6. She then asked, if we had any more questions and then gave out her email and phone number again.

EDLD 5363 Week 3 Reflections

In week 3, I believe the assignment was less stressful because we were all familiar with creating videos and using different editing software programs. I have never been asked to accomplish any task like this before, and was very excited when I read week three's overview. The course, Multimedia and Video Technology, has given me the opportunity to accomplish tasks I have never done before. From the past three weeks, I have learned so much about technology. In week 1 I created a personal digital story, in week 2 I created a tutorial about an editing software program, and in week 3 I learned the steps on how to film a PSA. I have also learned how to incorporate technology into my lessons. For example, I now know that my students can create, fun and exciting, videos to go along with the concepts they are learning. My group was able to work together and come up with an excellect PSA topic “Why Recycle”. I was very happy that we were able to collaborate as a group to complete our pre-production plans to our PSA assignment. I can’t wait until our PSA is finished. I know it will be awesome!
