DV #4 and Blog #7


Blog #7  The below video outlines my storyboard for my final video project.  The purpose of this video is to share my culminating experience proposal with our cohort.  I feel as though I explained my story core and story board in detail through my narrative and therefore am going to focus on the challenges I faced in creating this video for my blog. 

Because I am not tech savvy and have recently purchased a new laptop, I find that every assignment has been more difficult than I anticipated to complete.  This week, I completed my storyboard using Microsoft Powerpoint and then realized that I couldn't upload my powerpoint directly to my blog.  Therefore I started downloading all kinds of software before seeing in the instructions that Snagit would assist in creating videos using my screen shots.  Snagit worked well and I was able to take those video clips and import them into my Microsoft Moviemaker.  The only problem is that I only have a 30 day free trial to Snagit and need to see if the other suggested software is free or find another alternative. 

I realize that all of my problems are user errors, however these are the issues that non-digital native educators will run into that will cause frustration and possibly end the implementation of certain technologies.  Professional development is key in teaching educators how to use these tools and resources.
