EDLD 5363 - Personal Digital Story

EDLD 5363, ET8041, Week 1

Assignment 1 Digital Story Reflection ET8041 EDLD 5363

Once again, Dr. Abernathy has taught us that we can do what we feel is the impossible.   I was able to create my first digital video using voice, music, words, and pictures.  This really is significant to me because I can remember admiring videos from my counterparts and one day hoping that I would be able to create videos of my own.  Well, I did it.  I really enjoyed reading and gaining pointers from Lambert’s article “Digital Storytelling Cookbook”.  It helped me to organize my own thoughts for my video.  I have gained the knowledge necessary to share the experience with students in my program and can only imagine the excitement that can come from that sharing.  I learned a lot this week and I know that there is a lot more in store for us in Week 2.
