Digital Video Production K-12

Instructor: Gregg Martin

How long have you said, "If I only had the time, I'd learn that iMovie software"? Spend a short week this summer creating, editing, and publishing a digital video project. If you are interested in true authentic, performance assessment this session is for you. You will learn how to engage students in learning opportunities where they:

• Represent information and ideas accurately and appropriately

• Create visual presentations to communicate data with power and purpose

• Use digital video tools to teach others a concept.

Each York participant will receive a digital video camcorder for their classroom. Non-York participants will have the option of purchasing the same camera for a nominal fee of $119.

You will spend time being introduced to the hardware, digitizing video and exploring the tools of iMovie such as:

• Synchronizing audio to video

• Overdubbing

• Adding effects and transitions

• Publishing your production to DVD

• Video Podcasting

• Streaming video to the Internet

We will also explore the use of multimedia rubrics to answer the question, "How good is good enough?" You will leave the week with a digital video project and an outline of a plan to use the technology with your students in the fall. Lights, Camera, Action! - See you in June! Gregg Martin is York's Director of Technology.
