Week 5- MovieMaker



This video was created as a learning tool to show students that it does not matter which country you are from or what race you are, people need to come together and support each other through hard times.

I believe by using MovieMaker as a digital learning tool in the classroom it will help students observe and study different topics. Digital movies aid children with communication, observation and analysis skills and can also be used for reflection (Schuck & Kearney, 2004, p.10). This enables students to show their understanding by creating a movie using their opinions and thoughts of their learning journey. Students will use various techniques during the movie making process such as intellectual quality- higher order thinking(Department of Education and Training, 2001), group work and literacy skills.
