My Spring 2009 Creative Learning Experience

I consider this assignment the most difficult. After reading the assignment, and before I started working on the project, I thought it was going to be one of the easiest of all the assignments. But this project has been the most time consuming, and I must admit that without the help of my peer Vicky, I would have been completely lost. However, following the completion of the project I was appreciative of the learning experience because I am planning on creating something similar as a surprise gift for my daughter’s upcoming May graduation.

The tool’s I used were my camera, and all the features I had never utilized prior to this project. My laptop, which had some compatibility issues with Vista; and other programs which I didn’t even know exist on my laptop. I took most of my pictures and used a few online pictures. The reason I used the Internet pictures was because I wanted pictures that would correspond with my theme. And as we are just coming out of the winter season, I needed pictures that could be applied to my topic.

As a future Special Education teacher, this project experience will allow me to create, and modify educational videos targeting all of my future student’s personal strengths, and interest. Another benefit for me as a teacher is that it is very inexpensive as opposed to buying videos for my students. I will be able to use my teaching allowance for other needed supplies as well.
