EDLD Week 4 Web Conference Reflection

     The Web Conference for Week 4 was held on Tuesday, December 6.  Dr. Abernathy initiated the web conference.  We began by discussing the grading process for week 2 and week 4 of the course.   There will be no grades for these assignment weeks.  There will be a grade for week 3, which will include our project plan, outline, and timeline along with the rough draft, the story board, and the shot plan.   We will receive a final grade during week 5 where we will conclude the work on our PSA project uploading our final production to a YouTube and then including this PSA project production on our Wiki site and also our Blog site.  There was a discussion about the best methods for sharing documents.  Dropbox was discussed as a good method for sharing and that this method was very easy to utilize.   We discussed the uploading of our PSA projects to YouTube and then uploading the PSA project to our Wiki site and to our Blog site.   We will then reflect on our group experiences and projects in our Blog.  There was a brief discussion about a site that utilized the Center for Interactive Learning Collaboratives at the following address;  www.cilc.org.  This is a site that incorporated a lot of good resources for classroom use of interactive video usage.   An example was site where a teacher is using this resource from the Center for Interactive Learning Collaboratives for a Holocaust lesson in the upcoming week.  These eighth grade students will be involved in a web conference.  This class will utilize this interactive site for an interview with Anne Frank's step sister.  Another group discussed how they are going to integrate a Moodle lesson.  They will have the students collect holocaust images and create photo stories that they can narrate and post in the Moodle.    During the web conference there was also a discussion about utilizing the Adobe Premier site.  We then discussed that our final PSA project production will need to be posted in the artifacts section of the TK20 site.  This course has taught the tools necessary and beneficial to enable us to create and edit successful video production projects.
