Tuesday's Class

Tuesday's class left me truly inspired! It is amazing to see all the creative possibilities that making videos presents. And never has it been so easy for amateurs to produce a quality product. With this kind of medium, the only limit is your imagination. I especially appreciated the music history video - a little creativity and effort can go a long way towards an impressive presentation on a subject. I'm not saying that in order for students to learn it must always be entertaining, but projects like this can serve as great introductions or summarizations that get the students interested and inspired. Projects like this show them that learning does not have to be boring, and shows them how what they learn can be applied to their own lives.
