Records of Activity (12 – 18 Nov)
I went to the school (16th of Nov.) and meet the teacher to discuss how our project went. We have evaluated the effectiveness of the iMovie project. I took notes while the teacher explained the canvases she and the students has faced during the implementation of the projects. In overall, she defined the project as a success, since the students have learned what they were supposed to learn from the activity and the “Identity and Self”unit. I will be focusing on these in my final project more.
Field Project update (5-12 Nov.)
I e-mailed the teacher saying that I will come to her first period as I usually did. I asked if it is ok. But I did not get a reply. So, I went to school on last friday, November 9,anyway. But she was not there. I am going to send her another e-mail and ask if everything is all right.
Records of Activity (10/29-11/5)
I went to the school on Tuesday and I demonstrated how to use IMove to the students. They seemed to be all excited of using the built in Webcam in their computer. Some of them told me that they have used iMove in middle school, but they do not remember how to use it, now. So, I presented the basics on how to create their project for Identity and Self unit. The teacher gave the instructions on what to include in their movie. They are supposed to write a poem, read it and record themselves. That will connect them to the poem they will be reading later.
