Week 5 reflection

Videos are a good approach to teach students lessons toward understanding and improving their skills in any subjects. In fact, it can change their mood during the class, especially if the class is long and boring for them, so this is the best solution to change the teaching style. Making short stories by using new program called Photo story 3. This program includes lots of pictures that student or teachers do by his or her own efforts .It is a real challenging because of many teachers and students may face difficulties. For example, this program is useful for students at age 6 because they can understand steps clearly and follow them correctly to manage the video and may be its take long time to make it. In the same time, it’s attracting way for children who are under age 6, but they cannot use this program yet in this age, so teacher try to draw students by his or her creativity. For me it is easy and enjoyable program to use because I can draw, create and take picture any time I want and change to be co0ol to become my own copy rights of course by using two basic programs that I have learnt in last few weeks like Magix Xtrem Photo Designer 6 and Ms paint from the computer Window . Also, it can help students who have passion in using new technologies to appear their talents and curiosity toward this program. In addition, all last weeks were interesting because we teach by what we see in (videos).

    How did you manage to learn photostory and the usefulness of using photostory in the class? You came to class, saw, heard, thought and felt. What strategy worked best four you? How about the reading? Tell us about your self learning for this week.

    I agree with you. Photostory can empower students in many ways - creativity and authorship to name a few.

    Keep going
