As an innovator in the classroom, I am continually attempting to educationally challenge my students while making learning fun and interesting at the same time. I think that the techniques discussed in this course will be incredibly useful in both goals. First, I can see several important uses for Image Blender. In writing classes, I could have students capture a photo. Then, I could have another student write about that image. Perhaps they could describe it, tell what happens next, or even do a creative piece of writing on it.
Beyond that, with Image Blender, the students could take that image a step further and alter the photo in order to write about it. In poetry courses, students might be assigned a piece of poetry that they would need to fit an image to. They could do this any way that they wanted to. Beyond this, in working with seniors on their graduation projects, there are many possibilities for integrating photos into the final presentation. As a whole the possibilities of Image Blender are tremendous. Clay-mati on movies offer so many possibilities in my classroom.
First, in my writing classes, they are an easy way to help students learn how to write a script and tell a story. Students might be asked to write a creative story and then tell it using a clay-mati on movie. Beyond that, I could see the possibility of teaching poetry terms through the movies. Each group could be assigned a different poetry term and they could have to explain, or demonstrate, the term using a clay-mati on movie. In my Shakespeare class, students could be asked to perform a play, act, or scene from a Shakespeare play using only clay characters. All of these projects help to extend the learning of the units being taught.
The Term Paper on Man with a Movie Camera vs Run Lola Run
Andre Parfeniuk Student # 10260974 December 3, 2001 The Impact of Dziga Vertov on Film " The main and essential thing is : the sensory exploration of the world through film. We therefore take as a point of departure the use of the camera as a keno-eye, more perfect than the human eye, for the exploration of the chaos of visual phenomena that fills space." - Dziga Vertov , Manifesto The Council of ...
Creating movies has the greatest potential in my classroom immediately. I have always had some sort of video production / play project incorporated into my 10 th grade English classes. However, all of those presentations involved the students performing an extra act to a play and me videotaping. There was no post-production work done on the projects. With the addition of i Movies, students could write, direct, and produce their own video presentations. It would add a great deal of flexibility and creativity to the projects.
They would really only be limited by their own imaginations. Students could do the entire videotaped segments outside of class, do the post-production work in the computer lab, and then show their videos in class. As for my other class, this technology gives my AP students the chance to do a complete background documentary on an American author of their choice. However, I see the greatest benefit for this occurring for the senior graduation projects. This could really enhance any senior’s presentation.
And, more importantly, it could greatly help a student who has a fear of audiences clearly and impressively communicate with the evaluators and the audience. Consequently, I can see the incredible benefits of i Movies in my classroom and in the school. As a whole, I believe that the content in this class will greatly benefit and challenge my students in every part of the curriculum. More importantly, it will allow my students to be an integral part of their own education..
Blair Witch Project Movie Review

With that introduction, Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez launched what was one of the most chilling and most successful horror movies in the last 20 years. The Blair Witch rises above typical horror movie genre and brings about something ...
