When we were working on iMovie in class on Thursday, I kept thinking to myself "Wow if I could actually get the hang of this program, this will be so much easier than the video projects I made in school growing up." I remember trying to edit footage by rewinding and recording over mess ups. Projects would take all day simply because of this. iMovie is intimidating but it would save so much time if I was able to get familiar and comfortable with the program. I can definitely see myself using this in advocating PE. I could tape footage of my students and put music to it and show it to the parents at parent-teacher conferences. Also, I can make my own video of me coaching or teaching to promote myself. It's exciting.
These are great ways to utilize a program such as iMovie in a Physical Education setting. You'll find that often just getting parents or students excited about what you are teaching will have a huge impact in motivating students.
