Digital Story/Video

Today we used iMovie to create digital story videos. This was really easy, and looks high quality and professional. My video is a brief overview on the life and work of one of my favorite artists; Andy Warhol. I will definitely be using this program again to create videos for my students, not only about artists, but also for step by step lessons and visuals about overarching concepts, art movements, and history lessons.

Excel

Today in TPTE 486 we learned how to create interactive spreadsheets using Microsoft Excel. This allows students to input information into a document to answer questions that you have created. The spreadsheet will let them know if the answer is right or wrong, and what grade they can expect based upon their finished assignment. This will be a great tool to use to create quizzes in the classroom for memorized facts or vocabulary, like the one I created below.
