Multimedia Production101 - Make Your First Video
Making your own instructional videos and having students create multimedia projects are great ways to use tech tools in classrooms. But the software can seem complicated and best left to more skilled IT people. NOT SO!! This session is for people who'd like to try making a multimedia presentation but don't how to get started. In 90 minutes we'll help you turn a loose collection of slides, movie clips, and music files into a video using Adobe Premier Elements (PC) or iMovie (Mac). If you're coming with your own PC laptop, please download the free trial of Adobe Premier Elements beforehand. Allow about 2 hours as this is a big file. The link below will show you our first attempt!

20 months ago I was a near 'techno-fossil’. Although I’ve always embraced the value of using success as a way to engage students, I'd never really considered how deeply engaging they find technology until I caught the bug myself. Working with these tools makes me feel creative where I never did before and has given me a renewed spirit of discovery.

I’m currently a Math/Science & GED teacher at the White Rock Learning Centre. Now at 57, after 35 years at the front of the class, I'm also a student again in the online Instructional Media Masters at Wilkes University. I'm particularly interested in connecting with colleagues who want to try blending new tools into our mix so that . . . “everything old can be new again, but better!”
