I have used Diigo to highlight which iMovie tutorial videos I think are the most useful for you in getting your assignment done this week.

Digital generation video on Kid who loves making videos and video projects. 9 minutes.

The Flip camera is great for all types of projects in science and math - at any grade level. Flip cameras are small handheld video cameras that can record 30 or 60 minutes worth of video. They connect to a computer with a USB plug that "flips" out from the side of the camera. The benefits of these cameras include another means for assessing students understanding of concepts beyond worksheets and tests. Besides a teacher's record, the videos provide a digital record for parents and administrators to show a student's successes or areas which need improvement.

From Allison--great site of instructional videos

Interactive whiteboards (IWB) allow science and math teachers to teach multi-sensory lessons, seamlessly jumping from one type of media to another. Interactive science or math lessons can easily integrate text, sound, video, and graphics based on the tactile nature of the IWB.

An interactive White Board (IWB) or SMART Board has the potential to deliver content better than traditional methods of teaching. Why? Because it provides multi-media functional interaction across audio, video, and computer media. It is also ideal for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. These qualities of an IWB also promote the dynamic delivery of content (if used to its full potential) in an engaging manner, which allows students to interact with science or math content their self. Examples include: * data manipulation * responding to data * even creating data So with all these attributes - "How are interactive white boards unsuccessfully used in science and math classrooms?" For the most part - not effectively!

Edit youtube videos of language and other issues. Could be useful for videos you want to teach.

Have you ever wanted to create short "how to" video for your students to use for homework, remembering facts, and solving math problems. How often have your students stated, "I could not complete the homework assignment, because I could not remember the steps and no one could help me." Well the answer is to create a screencast or video for posting on your class wiki or blog for students to view at home or anywhere else they have web access.

video introducing the digital generation, and how connected kids are to tech and immersed in it. 4 minutes. More tech-centric than I'd like.

Great example of what I think is a student video project on the Giver. An example of how video projects can be used to show student understanding of a book's themes.

great poetry interpretation video

I love videos! Even students who do not claim to be "visual learners" enjoy a video because it keeps their attention and helps them remember the information they are viewing. I have used this website multiple times when teaching lessons in various schools and they have always gone over well. Plus, not only is it a great resource, but it is also allowed in internet filters. YouTube, on the other hand, is blocked in the majority of schools.

This will help be a better teacher because its a tool I can actually use in the classroom. Like I said before, I am a visual learner and I know that I will have some students who learn the same way..This link provide videos to teach specific points..I love that!

Example of a teacher using wikis, blogs, etc. with students. 5 minutes. Google docs. Literacy: she shouldn't have to teach terms, they should look them up. Addresses: do I need to know everything as a teacher? Also accessibility in a rural school. Shows disconnected classrooms collaborating together on reports and a wiki.

I think this can help me be a better teacher because I'm more a visual learner and by watching and learning from others helps me learn better.

great video showing students learning many subjects and work skills through a technology-enhanced animation project.

Flipgrid videos

Stimulating critical thinking using technology has the potential to create more in depth understanding of science and math content by students when engaged in learning activities which integrate in-class and on-line technology resources. Technology tools support stimulation of both inquiry-based and critical thinking skills by engaging students in exploring, thinking, reading, writing, researching, inventing, problem-solving, and experiencing the world outside their classroom. This is accomplished through learning content through the lens of video to multimedia to the internet (Using Technology to Improve Student Achievement, NCREL, 2005).

My friend in Memphis is in charge of a privately-funded, faith-based organization providing professional development to teachers on technology integration topics. LOTS of great videos on great technologies here! Check them out!
