Inspiration and imovie

Question 1

I came to really like imovie. After I got the hang of most of it I thought it was fun and it brought out a little artistic me. It did take some time to understand what everything was and how it worked but it was fun and I recommend this to any teacher to see if it could help their class. Inspiration was just ok. It was like creating a bubble chart for and English paper. Not really revolutionary, but it serves a good purpose. I believe this program works best at the lower academic levels but not really strong for the high school level.

Question 2

I would incorporate imovie in my social science class by making short movies or clips depicting the events that were are reading. In sense I would make mini documentaries that would focus on what were are studying. This helps so I don’t have to lecture and the students don’t have to read all the time.

Inspiration I would not really use, but if I had to I would use it to make charts and graphs of events and people and places. It would be a giant bubble chart/time line for students to study from.

Question 3

I did not use atomic learning or any other software help. I just winged it and played with it until I got the basic idea. It took awhile but I did learn eventually how to use these programs.
