Week 7

How will these skills help me collaborate with my colleagues?
A: You are able to combine every subject into a video and you can play this when classes are together or for assemblies.
Why are these tools so popular with my colleagues?
A: This tool is a very good way to get through to students, most students react and learn more through things that they see then what they hear.
In which ways might I employ these skills to achieve classroom objectives?
A: These can be shown to get a important point across about different things dealing with P.E, like obesity and what happens to your body when it is not being taken care of.
What are the pros and cons of Digital Story?
A: Digital stories can be very touching and have a huge impact on students, they will learn a lot more through a movie then a lecture, cons: It takes more time to put everything together and sometimes the movies could be to dramatic for students to watch.

Video
I thought the video this week was very interesting, I did not know that so much money is put back into the world for every thing NASA does. My brother designs rockets and then presents then to NASA so this video reminded me of what he does. Its sad that there were so many people lost when they were working on sending people to the moon. This video made me want to watch Apollo 13 :)
