Leadership Project Final

Are you interested in learning about what you can do with an iPad in the classroom? Check out this short informative video about using the iPad in school!

Creating this video was a great experience for me. I feel that my group worked really well together. In order to create a complete project, we each took on our own app and explored. Once we decided on an app, we applied it and created our segment. Each segment consisted of pictures of the app, pictures of students working and a short clip. In order to compile the segments, we used iMovie. Danielle has iMovie and was willing to put the segment together. The group used Dropbox to compile are resources. Dropbox was an incredibly helpful resource and easy to use!

If I were to do this again, I would love to have to more say in the video. Since iMovie is an expensive program, it was hard for me to use it and understand what Danielle was doing. We talked about using Windows Movie Maker, but iMovie had so many more features.

I am anxious to hear feedback about our video. I hope that teachers are able to find it useful!

PART B - Storyboard and Script

Well, it is coming together! The storyboard is very detailed and I feel that we will have a great resource to share with others!

The video takes a look at four different apps; one app for each subject area. I focused on social studies and found a great app called, Stack the States. The app has been a lot of fun to work with and I found that I even learned a few new things through playing!

We wanted the video to be like a school day. So, the apps are presented as if you are going through the day.

My team members and I spent a lot of time working on the storyboard. We talked through Adobe Connect earlier this week to touch base and work out the storyboard. We were all responsible for our own script, however, we worked on the transitions and overall design together. Jessica was a great help because she was able to test the apps on a third grade class. Thanks to Jessica's work with the students, we have videos of students using the app that we will show during transitions.

For the final presentation, we will all read our own script. As we read, pictures related to our app will be shown in the background. Once we finish reading, a Video of students using the apps will be shown as part of the transitions. We will have one group member compile the videos and audio clips in iMovie.
