4. Description of activity
At our school operates a lab of Creative Writing. The students exercise
on writing stories. The certain activity is a work of the sixth class
students.
The students wrote a story. Then they agreed to illustrate it in the form
of a comic. They were taken pictures which were worked on Movie
Maker so as to compose a presentation.
The students paintings were photographed, worked on the Movie
Maker, was added music and a video was made that was uploaded
on Youtu Be Channel of the School.
I have Very Good knowledge on ICT but I spend enough time on
studying ways on utilizing software of computers.

5. Teaching
The students talked at the Lab of Creative Writing about the topic and
expressed a variety of opinions. They gave personal texts. All
together they decided to show in a form of comic one of the texts.
TIME :The completion of the comic in video on Movie Maker lasted 2
teaching hours.
PROCESS: The students took pictures of the squares from the
paintings of their classmates who showed in a better way the
meanings of the story. The photos were saved on a computer file.
The students turned on the development of the photos with Movie
Maker. They pyt the pictures in a row, they write the complementary
texts, they added music and uploaded the video to Youtu Be.

9. Comparison
The use of software (educational and if presentation) makes lessons
more interesting because the computers environment is familiar with the
students.
The development of software in teaching multiplies the understanding of
the teaching object as the students are creators.
The students are satisfied because they produce something new which
has an opportunity of publishing.
The produced work on the computer the students can share with a big
audience.
The use of the software takes place in a team and cooperative
environment and skills necessary for the citizen of the 21st century are
cultivated.

10. Assessment
I develop software of ICT with the students as user for the
understanding of knowledge and the assessment of teaching and I
believe that using them as complementary tools in teaching they
make it more effective and they give more quality.
The activity achieved its goal because the students suggested and took
over the responsibility to create presentations on Movie Maker from
other project.
The teachers’ school -after given a presentation by the students -
understood that Movie Maker is an easy and impressive application
and they will utilize it in the projects they materialize.
The children were happy making something different and satisfied
because other could see their work.

11. Further Comments
The Movie Maker is a easy to use for the students which they can
explore by themselves and produce their own work on it.
The production of a video on the Movie Maker is completed in a small
time space, e.x. 2 teaching hours.
The ICT combine the traditional and the modern and their use make
teaching excellent.
The use of educational software cultivates cognitive skills of the
students as it builds new knowledge.
The pedagogy of teaching multiliteracies ( digital, social) is closely
coordinated with the cultivation of the 21th century skills.
