Hello guys!
I am back with a different
task. My friend Elifgül Güven (click here to see her blog!) and I prepared a PSA
video about animal testing. It is an ongoing issue and informing people about it
might save the lives of many animals.
Creating the PSA
was not that challenging. Elif and I split the preparation and did our best. She
prepared the video using CapCut and I wrote the script. Then we added our voices
to the video. I used ClipChamp to add the voiceover. It was a bit hard because I
could not figure out the way to see the video and record my voice at the same
time. Thus, I struggled to match the timings and did many retakes. However, the
site was easy to use and I was satisfied with the result at the end.
Using digital stories
in the classroom may have many benefits. It is a whole new experience and
making students create one can help their learning. They might be interested in
it as well. Instead of giving homework in the traditional way, we can get
students to create something new with technology. However, creating a digital
story is not that easy and we should be aware of the challenges students might
face.
In addition, we don’t
have to make students create one to learn something. We can use our own digital
stories in the classroom to teach! I think students may enjoy this as well!
Until we meet again, take care of yourself!
