To date, my experience with the digital camera has been great. I am quite excited about the features the digital camera and Photostory 3 offers. Although developing the Photostory will take much time and effort, I have made some progress towards the completion of this Digital Story. I plan on using Photostory 3, along with the digital camera to create an Infomercial.
During this time in the school year, rising seniors go about the task of selecting their senior classes. One of the courses offered is the Advanced Placement Biology class. The objective of the Informercial developed by my students and I will be to familiarize the Parkdale High School student body with the Advanced Placement Biology course. Current AP Biology students will capture digital images, select appropriate assignment samples and music, not to mention providing the narration for this project. In the story/infomercial, students will discuss the objectives of such a course, highlight the benefits of taking AP courses, in particular AP Biology, chronicle their own experience in the class and highlight some of the fascinating activities we have completed and places we have visited as a class.
Again, this project will require some time and thought on my end. Yet, not only am I excited, but also confident that this project will become a part of my professional portfolio and a resource for students in the years to come.
