Ten Tips for Movie-making
Posted by dogtrax on February 24, 2008
This is an interesting post from 21st Century Connections that gives some pointers for use of movie-making in the classroom. I particularly liked this section:
Use Student Reflections for Assessment Purposes:
Begin the post-production stage by asking your students to reflect on the earlier (pre-production and production) stages of their digital media project. This activity enables you to elicit comments from students while the experience is still fresh.
Here are some sample questions to spur reflection:
- What were the most challenging aspects of the pre-production and production stages?
- What would you do differently next time?
- What topics do you need to know more about?
- What specific suggestions would you offer someone starting his first media project?
Use this assessment information to gauge students’ understandings as well as to plan for future classes.
