My goal is to create video instructions to guide my students in their remote learning. My goal/vision for my students is to have them access the assignments and more importantly the information in more than just a written format. I would love to create videos that guide my kids through the lesson. They would be able to see the instructions while exploring the content. We would also gain the ability to "Google Meet" with my kids to interactively provide the lesson for additional support. Planning for the future: Bringing creativity to Science! Once we are able to rejoin in the classroom I would love to utilize the editing software to allow my kids to explore their creative sides. Student's could use this technology to create songs and videos about the science topics we are learning. Channeling their creativity will allow them to express their understanding in a multitude of ways.
