Learnscope Last Call

There are still some places left on the Learnscope project for both casual and permanent lecturers.

 

You will learn about video: how to access ESL videos; how to add sub-titles to existing videos; how to make "digital stories", (photos with subtitles and/or narration), or just narrated text; how to make these accessible to students through public video sites; how to shoot videos for classroom purposes with a digital camera; how to edit these videos.

 

It may sound daunting, but we're doing it slowly with ten fortnightly sessions. And, you only have to come into the City for the first session. The other sessions will be delivered into the safety of your own home through computer and I will provide backup.

Here is a rough outline of the sessions:

 

1 Introductions
Use of Software (Elluminate, GoogleTalk and other communication software) {Everybody here in Perth}

2 Accessing YouTube and other video access sites; finding ESL sites; adding sub-titles to videos

3 Creating Digital stories with Photostory3

4 Creating a YouTube account and uploading digital stories; exporting YouTube addresses

5 Consolidation and review

6 Using a digital camera to take movies; uploading the movies onto the computer

7 Editing and saving movies with MS MovieMaker

8 Enhancing movies with MS MovieMaker; Recording dialogues and adding them to your video

9 Exploiting your video

10 Review

 

but these may be reviewed and altered according to participant needs and wants.
