I am super excited for this class. Thus far it seems to have serendipitously connected with several things I've been kicking around the back of my mind for awhile. Ever since getting my mac and playing with some of the multi-media features, I've thought it would be fun to do some sort of video/photo/media projects with family photos, etc.
I've also been thinking a lot about oral story telling in general over the past couple of years, so I'm very excited about that aspect as well.
I am looking forward to learning more about the approaches discussed in Presentation Zen and applying them. I also am looking forward to a new, creative way to present information in a away that isn't death by PowerPoint and actually have meaning.
Furthermore, am excited to be working with new group members and having fun collaborating. I think a lot is gained from collaboration when you can be creative and have fun while working on something in a fun way.
As for what I hope to accomplish, I want to turn some of my family photos and some of the zombie march event photos into digital stories that can then be used a examples for students. I also hope to learn of new online resources that can assist in making the whole process easier from the technological tools aspect. I don't want to recreate the wheel if someone can share an easier way to achieve the same end.
Here's to a great class! *clink*
