iMovie Final Video

After creating my iMovie video I need to answer, "How you might use instructional video projects in your teaching. What specific lessons or activities would be enhanced by using these technologies? How would you implement them?"

First of all, before I answer this I just need to say that technology is great but it can also drive you insane. This project was not easy and I hit a lot of road blocks along the way. With that said, since I made a video myself I know what it will be like for my students when they are making a video. I would definitely be sure I gave them enough time and resources for them to be successful. We would probably do a lot of in-class work on it as well. One way I would use an instructional video in my teaching would be to have the students make an outline. By having students write step by step how to do a movement, it helps them have a better understanding of the movement itself. Also I would want my students to go look up instructional videos on teacher tube or youtube. You can find some good insights on the internet on how to perform a skill. True that not all of the resources are credible, but that could be another lesson in itself: how to evaluate a website. I would specifically use this video, "How to Dribble a Soccer Ball" when teaching or coaching soccer. I specifically used three cues in the video which I would repeat throughout the lesson. Also, I'd post the video on my class/coaching website along with a worksheet on dribbling.
