Motivational Poster-Designed by me using Photoshop ETEC 692 Photoshop- Designed by me using Photoshop Learn to Play the Violin - Utilized internet blogs to help create an internet course on learning the basics of the violin. I was tasked with creating a completely online course where distance learners could participate. I created the "good start" welcome page, objectives, and made sure to post the technology requirements. Assessments were also posted and after receiving the students feedback, I made note of changes I would make for the next course I create. Braidout Tutorial -iMovie was used to create and edit a video tutorial and was posted onto YouTube. I went through the design phases before creating this tutorial. Originally I surveyed young women to se if a tutorial was needed and with the feedback they gave me, I adjusted my tutorial from there. Let's Add- iMovie was used to create a video to teach kindergarten students how to add numbers to get totals. I was tasked with teaching students a lesson and I chose a video because kindergarten students respond to visuals. This is something I will keep and definitely use in my career.
