Animation

All my life, I've had the dream of becoming an animator, since I'm a big fan of Walt Disney's work. I just think it's cool that he came up with the idea of animation and turn them into movies. The only thing that I never though about animation is how time consuming it is and you just feel like you just want to get your ideas publicized before anybody could steal your ideas. However, with PowToon, it got me interested of it and it was a little time consuming to come up with ideas, but for this, I decided for this animation video, I make a show of coming up with classroom rules, because every teacher has got to come up with rules for their classroom, so their students can be good citizens and good learners. I hope you enjoy and I also hope these are the way to start making rules.

Annotated Video

I've never made an annotated video in my life. I never actually thought that you could find a video you like to watch and use it for students to be tested on what they're analyzing from the video they're watching. For this one, I picked a video from my favorite show called Studio C. As soon as you start the video, and start watching it, you'll be able to encounter questions that are related to the video and you need to try to answer them. Hopefully, you'll understand that any video can be part of education when you learn it in school.

Creative Commons

I've never used the creative commons site in my life. At first, I thought it was just a site that required me to subscribe. I've just learned that Creative Commons is a website that helps people to identify how they want to protect and share their work. You answer some questions and it generates a little box for your blog. This box tells other people that they can't just steal the stuff I made, it does tell them though, if they can share it or use it to make their own creative thing. I've put a license on my Newsletter. You can see it on that blogpost.  

Google Hangouts On Air

I've never done Google Hangouts on Air in my life. I've heard of having a video call on computers like talking to someone on the phone. For this, I never thought that it was like interviewing someone especially for seeking advice from other teachers. For this, I interviewed my sister who's a teacher herself that explains her ideas and teaching her students on what they should study in order to take their science test. I'm quite speechless on a lot of things, whenever I have to answer questions that have some abstract vocabulary in a sentence. But, I think that's part of becoming a teacher is practicing on saying stuff to give feedback to the teachers. Hopefully that works for all of us.

AntiMoto

This is an animoto video that I created that presents tips for less stres. This video would be good for a school classroom especially for fifth graders. It was kind of confusing at first to use this program, but my sister showed me how to get started. Then, it was entertaining. I just wish that Animoto could let you put on more words. The text just seemed so limited.

Casting by Pod

I've experienced being interviewed to be on the News, but I've never actually done an interview that would be taken to broadcast and be set up on radio. As a matter of fact, I've never used Podcast before. Also, I've never done broadcasting on a computer before. This is a start for me. Anyway, the topic that I chose to broadcast on that might be fun and educational for children is the first book of Harry Potter. I made it sound like I was previewing the entertainment, inspiration, and persuasion of reading Harry Potter. I chose this picture of my sister and her husband at their bridle shower, because they used a harry potter theme. my sister really loves the Harry Potter series as well as almost everyone else in my family. I hope this podcast will be helpful for you.

Calendar on Google

I've never checked on my calendar on my Google Account, but it was really both hard and fun to come up with events that would be given to students and their parents about events that are coming up on the calendar. With these events I came up with and added an extra one just in case, I thought this would be a neat way to start making schedules for students and teachers. I'm not quite sure about all the apps that are being on the Google Account being the best, but it's the least that can be used for being an educator.
