Hi. I’m at Edubloggercon07 here at NECC. Below please find my notes. They are rapidly typed and this is my first attempt at conference blogging so forgive me if they’re no good or need to change in some way. My thoughts are in all caps and were type during the moment.
Creating a competitve student voice with david jakes
Perhaps we need a channel where there is less noise than youtube
we are missing a venue where kids can post something and it is taken seriously
four areas of digital storytelling 2.0
1. new tools
joyce mentioned voicethread.com
ispot, jumpcut online video editing
He feels like we’re headed towards browserware and away from desktop-based software.
2. new media
3. new networks
4. new message
brian crosby mentions that teachertube needs a section where students can post student work and then students could comment on it
www.nextvista.org
when you see the ny times with video obituaries, with youtube asking for kids to ask questions of political candidates
joyce valenza is saying that we’re fed up with student presentations created in powerpoint because they don’t look like presentation zen
one of her kids said that the slides need to be for the audience not for the presenter
david was talking about the fox news channel in chicago allowing folks to respond after a process of verification
I WONDER IF THIS IS EVEN NECESSARY. IF WE TEACH OUR KIDS HOW TO ARTICULATE THEIR THOUGHTS ACCURATELY AND TEACH THEM HOW TO THINK THROUGH THESE PROCESSES, THEY WILL LEARN THE NEEDED TECHNOLOGY EITHER JUST-IN-TIME OR BEFOREHAND BASED ON PASSION
slightly heated debate about fair use and the fairy use video
david is asking what the messages are that kids can create, what do kids need to speak on
when we ask kids to tell a story, sometimes it doesn’t turn out the way we’d like
the bottom line is what kind of meaning the students make from this environment
are they using the videos to get at the meanings in their lives
