The 8th Grade Social Studies students used iMovie'08 to create a video that explained the differences between the theories of Ptolmey, Copernicus and Kepler. In the video they were required to use still clips, video clips, background music, text, as well as record their own voice narration of the video's content. Upon completing the lesson, the students had to export the movie to a more portable format and then drop a copy into their teacher's drop box. The students took four days to complete this assignment.
Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!
The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.
