I've finally finished my movie (after 20 laborous hours) and I'm happy about the outcome despite it's short-comings. It was a new experience for me that I enjoyed immensely. I chose the 'how-to" video concept because I think my students can relate to this idea and be able to make a video of their own. They understand directions because I give them directions everyday, so they have become competent at this. I intend to give them a video assignment handout which includes a rubric, so they will understand what they need to do and how I will grade them. They will practice giving directions in a "how-to" video.
This has been my favorite assignment in our grad class. I think you will find my You Tube video a step above the others in this topic; thanks to Windows Movie Maker. Enjoy!
Very nice work Dave. Your video already has over 50 views. This could go viral.
