EDUC 3100 Final Blog Post

My digital story allowed the students you use their creativeness, while they searched their story in mythology. I believe that the digital story was an opportunity to learn in a different way. In looking for a moral or a life lesson in the story, the students were able to see why the story was create in the first place.

In creating the digital story, the students are introduced to new technology to use instead of the regular boring Power Point presentation. This in itself would be motivating enough to push the student threw any doubt about the difficulty of the project.

QR codes are a great fun when used in the right way. They allow the class to go on adventures such as scavenger hunts using clues and riddles in order to get the next answer. Also, it introduces them to a new technology that they may not have been introduced to before. I believe that this form of learning is superior because it is motivating to the student due to the fact that it's fun.

A podcast is a great way for a high school student to show what they have learned from a particular section of study. Podcasts allow them to be creative and it gives them free range to explore their interests.

This technology allows the students to have fun with this assignment and show their creative side that may not come out very often. Podcasts also make the student think critically about the subject of their assignment.
