This is the final version for class of my digital story that I
created to share at Open House with incoming parents and students. I decided to use Windows Movie Maker for this
project. I love my final product since I
was able to add narration. I thought it
was going to be a struggle to match my voice to each picture. Therefore, I decided to record each pictures
narration separately. While this made
recording and re-recording much easier however, when you play the digital story
you can somewhat hear the difference between each pictures narration. I do plan to update it before the actual Open
House in September with more specific information.
I believe it is very appropriate for my school and me. I personally feel this is perfect for me
since I strongly dislike speaking in front of anyone other than children. For this digital story, I was thinking of the
parents that might not be able to attend the Open House and how I could relay
information to them. I thought this
would be useful for that purpose.
If I were to do this again, which I plan to, I will need to have
all the pictures in one file, know exactly what I want to say, and have a
better microphone. I think I would try
to match the music to the pictures but I did not see the need to since I had
narration. If I were to use this
technology in my class, I think my students would pick up how to use is
quickly. The challenge would be that it
would need to be quiet if they were to record narration while using Windows
Movie Maker.
I am excited and proud to share with you my final product. Please feel free to leave feedback.
