=Final Project #8-1 Multimedia II Final Draft= <<--Back to Week 8

For our final project for this course, I am asking you to complete a "final draft" of one type of technology that we discussed in class. This could be a project that we have worked on (enhanced podcast, vodcast, video, mash-up, etc.) or another project that we touched on that you would like to try and explore. All I ask is that this final project be something that you could use in your classroom and that it is something that you are proud of - something that showcases your best work and willingness to try something "out of the box".

Marcia's Final Project - Podcast with music throughout, more images (edited to look better), and some new timing: (Comment: Marcia, I really liked your updated vodcast. It kept my attention and the pictures fit the words really well. Nicely done. B) media type="file" key="Reworked Podcast.m4a" width="300" height="300"

It is in 4 parts.

Part I - Introduction, Story line, Characters, and Level 1 (Comment: Curt, I really liked this idea. It would be fun to play! This is a great way for students to get and show their actual knowledge of the content, rather than regurgitating. B) media type="custom" key="11907206"

Betty's project - This project allowed me to learn more about creating an effective learning video for use on the class website. I cut and inserted intorductions and reviews throughout the video. I did not add music, because I thought it wasn't needed with all the talking parts. I feel much more comfortable with this process now that I completed this new project. Now, if I could just get more comfortable in front of the camera!

Joe's Final Project- Make sure you watch and read my reflection- 25 hours of work and still motivated to do another 100 hours. However, my wife will kill me if I spend any more time on this. (Comment: This is fantastic Joe! I am looking forward to seeing the next three. B) Joe media type="youtube" key="LOrEEXFk8Xs" height="315" width="560"
