Digital Storytelling: Movies for the classroom
Digital Storytelling is a way to
bring visual and audio elements together to help students better understand concepts. Movie production is a powerful way to deliver
content and to impact the teaching and learning process. I learned how to create my very first
educational movie using MovieMaker for Windows and then posted it on
YouTube. I made a movie that highlights
the stages of embryonic development. I
personalized it by using ultrasound pictures of my niece and nephew and set it
to the music that my nephew was born too; it made for a lasting emotional
tribute to them and the beauty of development.
While there are countless YouTube educational videos available, why not
create your own to personalize them to specific content or students interests
to help promote effective learning.
