Lesson plans
featuring desktop video from Apple.com Until relatively recently, getting video into a Windows-based personal computer was a bit of a challenge. Macs, on the other hand, have always excelled at making that simple. To show off those features, Apple.com has put together a page of lessons plans that all incorporate desktop video in some way. http://www.apple.com/education/dv/lessons.html eZediaMX and the Classroom Connect Project Jim Cornish of Gander, Newfoundland does a terrific job in each issue of Classroom Connect’s newsletter where he puts together a directed activity for using the Internet in the classroom. His “Destination” pages give sites to explore for an overview of a topic on one page and then that is followed up by a page where the major topic is broken down into subtopics with objectives and suggested websites. I’m suggesting we can take the fine work of Mr. Cornish and extend it one step further in the classroom by taking the explorations and turning them into multimedia projects using eZediaMX. A discussion and complete directions are available at the Classroom Connect Project link. |
