Ceara McCurdy, a researcher at the University of Dundee in Scotland, asked me to share her exciting new project with you. She is trying to encourage teachers to use movies, mash-ups and video editing in the classroom (mainly ages 7-11). so that students will have skills they need to create content for YouTube etc. It is a natural for a creative outlet for students as well as a vital tool for presenting themselves online.
Ceara has a website started for her project Called Spoonfulofmovies http://www.cearanissa.com/spoonfulofmovies/ It is in the development stage and she is looking for your input and ideas. Of course there are already some good resources and ideas you can use. Storyboards and question prompts for your students to use in creating videos.
Take a look.
