Today we had a lot of fun filming a mini commercial and editing it with iMovie. The program is pretty user friendly, but we have Sara in our group and she has used it before, so it probably would have taken us longer if we had to figure it all out for ourselves.
This would be a fun tool to use in a classroom to create movies featuring students. They could film themselves acting out anything and incorporate this into the current lesson. They could practice reading comprehension by acting out literature characters and scenes, or even create their own story based on characters that the class is already working with.
Students could also use the cameras to explore the outdoor environment for science lessons, or to document important class projects. Another idea is to record class activities and post them so that parents can access the video and check out what their kids are doing during the school day.
