Digital Story<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

For my final Digital Story assessment, I wish to use my photopeach\/Pixton\/snagit remix for my ETEC 565A \u201cDigital\u201d Story project.
\nFitting In -First Day At School on PhotoPeach<\/object><\/p>\n

Reflection:<\/p>\n

Throughout this week I have been trying different web 2.0 storytelling tools, and using them in different ways, in order to create an effective story for ESL students. Originally, I created a story using Pixton,<\/a> that told my story as 21st Century Teacher. While interesting, the feedback I recieved was that it confused people and they did not udnertsand the context or pegagogical nature of the story. I also added a photopeach<\/a> story that my son and I wrote for his kindergarten class. This one definitely had a bigger impact on the viewers, and the story reached a wider audience primarily because of the music and personal nature.<\/p>\n

My feedback helped me reflect upon what story I \u201cneeded\u201d to tell and \u201chow\u201d to tell it in order to create an online lesson for my ESL Learners.<\/p>\n

After reading my feedback from my peers and after watching other peer stories, I noticed the impact of music on a story. My comic took a long time to make, but it did not not grab people\u2019s attention. My photopeach story about a Christmas tree grabbed attention, but missed the pegagocial connection.<\/p>\n

I decided to see if I could figure out how to implement a comic and music in a slideshow presentation. \u00a0I needed to demonstrate to my learners that everything happens in \u201cstages\u201d. – Coming to Canada, Learning a Language or learning to use a new web 2.0 tool. As a result, my lesson will be developed upon stages…..the Pixton comic, the remix of the Photpeach\/Pixton comic and finally the creation of a simple ePortfolio – Glogster poster. The students would \u00a0start with one activity, experiment and create a copy, then take the next step. It doesn\u2019t matter if you are an ESL teacher or student, you have to take things one step at a time.<\/p>\n

I would start with the Pixton comic, which shows an example of a story and what is expected of my ESL students.<\/p>\n

I would then show them the photopeach remix and discuss the impact of music. I would also discuss the fact that you have some \u201cediting\u201d challenges in photopeach, as I never know how each picture will come \u201cinto\u201d the frame. So the comic bubbles are sometimes hard to read.<\/p>\n

Since I had to use snagit as well to complete this kind of project, I may \u201cchange\u201d the lesson based on the student\u2019s ability. I could always ask them to bring in photos of themselves after arriving in Canada and create a photopeach story that way as well.<\/p>\n

Finally I would demonstrate the final product, a Glog. This Glog would act as the ePorfolio for the entire course. Students would be able to add all thier favourite assignments to demonstrate their abilities.<\/p>\n

By following \u201csteps\u201d my teaching objectives would be to offer ESL students the ESL scaffolding that they need as language learners. I would demonstrate basic editing techniques by showing \u201cstages\u201d of development, and I would demonstrate a formative assessment process. I would also meet the PLO\u2019s outlined in the BC Curriculum for Planning 10 and ESL 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
