In this class we learned about Digital Storytelling through Collage, Digital Storytelling through Video, Digital Storytelling through Sound, Digital Storytelling through Stop Motion Animation, 3D Design, and finally Creative Coding and Circuitry.
I have decided to combine scratch, sound, and collage, to tell a story about my learning in this class. I began by making this collage with a combination of images of the work that I created this semester.
Then I used scratch to put together the images with the music from the sound project that we did. I used sprites in the top left corner to mark the order of the six assignments.
Part 2: Create a reflective paragraph on your learning using the selfie-model (see syllabus, p. 8) and share it on your portfolio page (Due: Sunday, June 13).
Showed my Process
My process in this class has been documented through this blog. I would say that a major part of my process in this class has followed a similar model. After reviewing the course content on Canvas I proceeded to watch tutorials and familiarise myself with the media that was the focus of that module. Typically I would have a false start in which I was unable to do a great job completing the project and needed to begin again. This was particularly true for the Stop Motion Animation module because I had a difficult time making sure that I was properly using my phone and the materials.
Explained my Outcome
One of the best outcomes of my learning in this class has been a new level of comfort with unfamiliar mediums. I like that I have gained confidence with using new mediums because we did it weekly during this class.
Linked to Vocabulary
One of the most common pieces of vocabulary in this class was digital storytelling. I think that this is especially relevant to education since it is vital for educators to help students to tell their own unique stories.
Found Multiple Possibilities
One of the best part of participating in this class is that it helps me to understand that there are a myriad of new technology related options for me to express ideas.
I Persevered Through The Work
It was hard for me to adjust to the bi-weekly classes this semester but ultimately I was able to persevere. I am truly looking forward to in person classes.
Eliminated Carelessness
Recently when I looked at this blog where I have been posting this homework I realised that a lot of the titles of my posts were not very descriptive. I think I was previously seeing the Titles as an afterthought. Recently I went back and edited them to eliminate the careless titles that were not the most efficient way of helping viewers to anticipate the content of each post.
