Instructional Video Assignment

ASSIGNMENT TITLE:
Instructional Video - 2D Shapes

USES IN THE CLASSROOM:
Instructional Videos have a wide variety of uses in the classroom. If there was a short instructional video that accompanied every classroom lesson, students would have a great reference to go to when they did not quite get everything the first time it was explained. It would give the teachers the ability to reteach without having to do it with the whole class.
Students could use instructional videos to also explain subjects and topics in their own words. This would be helpful to other students to hear a lesson in someone else's words. It could also be used by a teacher for a grade to see if the student actually understood the subject at hand. Most likely if a child can correctly explain/instruct a topic then the have a good understanding of the topic at hand.

ISSUES TO CONSIDER:
Students must have access to a computer with Internet, correct software, a microphone (or computer that has a microphone), camera (and a way to upload the pictures), any other software/hardware needed and general knowledge on how to navigate around the software. Students will need to understand how to locate materials under the creative commons licensing or be able to get permission to use any copyrighted materials. Students should be able to site any materials used in the creating of the instructional video.
