Digital Story Reflection

Reflection #4

These skills can help my students by giving them a chance to learn about history or anything else in a different way. It makes learning more fun than the same old looking at a book to learn about something far away. These tools will also help my students create by giving them a chance to think outside the box.

Digital stories will help me collaborate with my colleagues by giving us a chance to work together to create a story we all can use in our classrooms. When you split up big projects like this, you get to know each other’s ideas and how everyone works. As you learn how everyone works, you help each other with your skills.

I could employ these skills to achieve classroom objectives by showing the students a history lesson of what happened in the civil war. I would do this, so that the students get more hands on of what really happened in the civil war, but not to much hands on that it scares the students.
One pro of digital story is being able to let the students learn in a new fun way. You also are able to share what you have created with other teachers so that way you can help each other save time in the long run. A con of digital story is the time frame it takes to make one.

NASA Digital Story

I enjoyed this video. I have always liked learning about space and NASA. It is sad that there have been many lives lost while going to and from space. And our country is not the only one who lost lives, Russia has also paid a price for mans curiosity. Hearing that NASA has also been doing many other things to help our country is neat. They get one dollar for research and give back seven dollars to the country. That is good to know.
