Well…this didn’t turn out so well for me. I like the program to make slide shows but did not really get the chance to use it to create a video…and I was really looking forward to it. Kim, Brooke, and I used a flip camera to record our video. We tried many different ways to get the video to work but we could never get the picture to show up. We could hear the audio but not see the video. Then Dr. Dave helped us to get the picture to show up but then we couldn’t hear the audio. So all in all it just didn’t work out to well. Maybe when I get another type of camera to use I can try to use it again. I was really looking forward to working with the program to make a video because I would like to use it in my classroom to video record activities my students do so that I could post them to my blog so that parents could see their children at work. I will try to do this with a video camera that we have at school. I might have better luck with it. I think that making videos of students in class of activities that students are participating in give the parents a way to look into the classroom without coming in and disturbing learning of students.
