Slides to support a workshop at the Building Learning Communities Conference; Boston, MA. 18 July 2014
How can we make learning sticky using powerful storytelling frameworks that tap into peoples' emotions? How do we involve all students in creating digital content that doesn't also create hours of content for teachers to assess? This interactive session will showcase Digital Storytelling activities teachers can use in class tomorrow! Document student learning & foster reflective ways for students to share their learning. 1st: we play! Then we'll discuss how to practically adapt these ideas, make them your own, and figure out what sort of infrastructure needs to be in place to support these kinds of powerful learning experiences. We’ll learn how to exercise your students' & your own creativity muscles and share simple strategies for collecting & publishing student work.

Have you ever wondered why certain scientists are more successful than others? Do you think it has to do with the topic of the research they are carrying out? Or the institute or laboratory they are associated with? We don't think so. Successful scientists brand themselves and their research. In fact they stand out!

3. Final Version: http://www.youtube.com/springwoodmedia#p/u/2/yibOILKSvvoThe following link is the Facebook group Katherine I created so we could receive some audience feedback via. We put up both rough and final cuts of our music video so we could receive some constructive advice. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/group.php?gid=373154212295&ref=ts
4. The feedback we received for out rough cut Before we even received the feedback for out music video Katherine and I knew there were going to be a few problems, there was a large amount of filming that needed to be done as we were incapable of doing it due to weather conditions, there were some sections that were out of sync and there were a few scenes that had to be re-filmed.
5. The final piece feedback The response Katherine and I received for our final cut of our music video was very positive, which felt slightly over whelming. However we did have a few comments saying that they think that the music video could do with a few more transitions. So when we received that comment Katherine and I decided that it is worth to add a few more transitions to the video. However overall the feedback we received was very positive and Katherine and I are pleased with what we have created and feel that all of the work that has gone into it was worth it in the end.
