Technology Media Projects- Uploading Videos and Animation

One of the many technology skills I'm teaching students is how to produce and upload videos to the internet. This technology skill includes many aspects such as; learning how to compress and expand files, how to import and export files, gaining an understanding of the different types of media files, understanding file size and learning different types of media-producing applications. Another aspect of this skill is learning about safety and ethical issues such as; protecting privacy and respecting copyright laws.

One of the many video projects we are working on this quarter is learning how to produce short stop-motion animation videos. Once this skill is mastered these techniques can be applied to addressing specific issues or presenting facts and information in innovative ways. This short project will fit in well with upcoming longer, more detailed media project such as the production of public service announcements. I have included a few examples of these recent student-produced animation videos from our Ning network.
