The rapid adoption of devices in the classroom has fundamentally changed the way we can create video. Every part of the creation process -- writing, recording, editing, and distributing -- is possible on the devices that can fit in our pocket. Vision is the most dominant of the five senses. Research shows that concepts are better remembered if they are taught visually. This is called the pictorial superiority effect, and it’s why video is such a powerful learning tool. A video is created three times: when you write it, when you shoot it, and when you edit it. There are several formats that can be used to write a script for the classroom: a Google Doc, a dedicated app (ex: Storyboards), a Google Form, or a production organization document. Whichever format is used, emphasis should be placed on how it will be used in the classroom, and what the goal of the video is. When recording, it is important to incorporate basic rules of composition, such as the rule of thirds, into your video. Being aware of the environment (basic concepts like lighting and room tone) makes it easier to edit. Curating content is another significant way to incorporate video into your classroom. If you don’t have the time or software to make a fancy video, odds are someone has already made it and shared it on YouTube. This Film Festival is equal parts curation and creation.

An essential part of online research is the ability to critically evaluate information. This includes the ability to read and evaluate its level of accuracy, reliability and bias. When we recently as Via Beth Dichter

Yet research tells us that middle schoolers: * "are more concerned with content relevance than with credibility." * "rarely attend to source features such as author, venue or publication type to evaluate reliability and author perspective. * "their judgments are often vague, superficial and lack reasoned justification." What should we do? 1. Teach the Dimensions of Critical Thinking - Relevance, Accuracy, Bias/Perspective and Reliabilty 2. Model and Practice - Use demonstration lessons to focus on the four dimensions above 3. Prompting - Provide written prompts to help guide students; have them cross-check claims through more than one source 4. Help them become healthy skeptics More information on these factors may be found in the post. |
