Digital Storytelling

-


  Hello, everyone! Today’s post is about digital storytelling. We created a digital story. We chose to do a ‘how to’ digital story. We did a research to find our topic. Then, we split up our parts and recorded our speeches. We found photos to use according to our speech. By using Movie Maker, we combined our recordings and these photos. And lastly, we added background music by using Adobe Premiere Clip.

  Using Movie Maker was really easy. However, I had troubles when it comes to adding background music. Later, I figured it out.

  I made this digital story with 2 of my friends Rana and Eda. You can go and visit their blogs by simply clicking their names.

  I may give a task like this to my students but it would be easier definitely. They can enjoy themselves with their own creation. This task may help to develop their creativity, critical thinking and if they work in pairs their collaborative skills. 

Make sure to tell us in the comments if you like our video!

  Hey, everyone! My task was to create an infographic about web 2.0 tools. Infographic means a visual representation of information or data. They can be used for multiple purposes. I used it to explain my favorite web 2.0 tools. Throughout this semester, we used many web 2.0 tools. I chose five of them. I used this website  to create my infographic. I chose a template and designed it according to my topic. I found related pictures and added them. Later, I wrote my ideas for each tool and explained why I would recommend them. Lastly, I did the final touches and saved the infographic.   It was easy to create for me and it was enjoyable. Infographics can be used in class because students probably would understand better when it is visualized. When it is given as homework, they can accomplish their homework without many problems.    I hope you like my infographic! Make sure to state your ideas in the comments!
