teachers: how to make education videos on a mac - document reader projector

Create presentation for classroom technology in classroom
There was hardly a day when my projector was not in the classroom.
I either use my document reader to guide the Keynote (
Power point version for Mac)
Use iMovie or YouTube.
I was lucky enough to attend a few regional-based trainings, but the best training was when I sat down and tried to figure it out.
Technology is a good teaching strategy.
My students pay more attention whenever I use technology.
The discussion went smoothly, the feedback was energetic and consistent with the course.
They are learning.
I know this through experience.
I knew a long time ago that if I simply talked to them through a class, they would usually "exclude ".
If I combine technology with the means of operation, they will know more about the content and theme of the course.
Students naturally and profoundly become visual learners. Why?
Technology and sensory images are everywhere, and it is it that captures them.
The days of giving them a piece of paper to memorize have passed.
Of course, they need to remember something, but not always in the form of a paper list.
They need to see the content in the action and then apply it.
This is the basic classification of Bloom.
What do you need. . .
A MAC computer program will be used;
I. lessons or tests on topics, IPhoto iMovie and Grabone PDF. (
I'm using a sample of a standardized reading test)
Seven basic steps study the area of documents you want to capture for your presentation.
Capture and save images using GRAB.
Send the image to the iPhoto Library (
Edit and crop as needed)
Assemble the presentation and customize it in Keynote.
Add arrows, text, and images as needed.
Save the keynote for your classroom needs.
Export the slides to iPhotoOpen iMovie and assemble the slide images in the order of adding features and audio. Specific steps are listed after the video below.
I created an icon legend below that shows the image of the icon we will be using.
Use this time to find a variety of applications. Suggestion -
Click on the small magnifying glass class in the top right corner of the screen to enter the name of the application.
Video options: how to make educational videos on MacWatch me through the steps on the video, a YouTube video has been created to guide you through the process.
You can watch the video at any time before, during or after viewing the steps.
Remember, you can always pause the video as needed.
Tip: You can zoom in on the video screen to help you see the image and text more clearly.
Here are the specific steps * Remember-
Use the small magnifying glass in the top right corner to locate your app.
Just enter the name and it will find it. Example;
You are looking for the GRABclick magnifying glass. Enter the word GRAB in the search box. Click on the icon when it appears. You have already opened GRAB now and it should be placed on your bottom toolbar
Find your app by clicking on the finder icon
First of all, capture the image from the document and you will want to view your document and select the feature you want in your course.
Find your questions, paragraphs and any other items that may be relevant to your questions.
Open a PDF document with a view between 100%-
125% click on GrabClick capture-
Select to decide where the image starts and click-
Hold down the mouse while dragging a part of the image.
Don't let go of your mouse before you're ready!
It captures the image once you let go. (
Don't be upset-
This requires a little practice.
This is the same action you use for "cut and paste)
Click the red button, just like turning off the image.
This will prompt you to save it.
If you can save it directly to your iPhoto library, please proceed.
If not, save to the desktop.
Repeat the process with all the images you need.
If you are able to save the image directly to iPhoto, import the image to iphoto-skip this step.
Otherwise, you will need to import the image into iPhoto.
Open the iPhotoClick file click "import iphotolibrary" and finder will open to your file list-
Find the image you saved (
I suggested desktop before)
Click the desktop icon in finder-
Select image-
After importing the iPhoto library, you can edit by cropping-if needed. How?
Click on the photo in iPhoto-
Library, click edit on the iPhoto toolbar, click crop, drag the edge to where you want it, click finish, and iPhoto saves it automatically once you finish any edits. Now it's time to get into keynote --
Prepare the theme of slidesOpen KeynoteChoose (
Background template)
Click on the master icon-
Usually 3rd icons on the far left will open various templates
Click Blank click the media icon-
Usually click the photo on the 3rd icon at the top right of the media window.
You should see all the images, drag the image by clicking the mouse on the image, and drag the text to the theme screen location and size by dragging the corner button to prepare as many slides as you need.
Think about your audio and the project you want to point out.
Save your theme and export the slides to iPhotoExporting theme slides to iPhotoOn in the upper left corner of the theme toolbar, click File> Export> image ". Save File
Name your file and enter it.
Your slides will be exported from Keynote to iPhotoNOTE! ! !
You may have noticed that you can also choose to save the PDF when you click File> Export> image. That's right!
You can create your own handouts and graphic organizers!
It just takes a little practice, but it works. iMovie -
Set your movieOpen iMovieStart and name a new item click the camera icon and drag the image in the order of the presentation click the corner icon on the slide to edit the time and crop.
You need to improvise when you set the length of each video.
I usually make my slides longer than I need.
After I recorded that particular part, I simply cut the end off.
Click the microphone and slide you want to record.
Record your speech.
Best Section do. Options;
Add titles, add music, add effects.
Play with icons and get creative.
You can always get rid of what you don't want.
Saved automatically when editing iMovie.
You can play it directly from iMovie, or you can export it to YouTube, iTunes, or Quicktime.
You can even make videos embedded in your keynote.
These options have a lot of notes about copyright. Be careful what you may upload to your blog or YouTube.
Standardized tests are protected, for example, so you should not upload them.
Leave them in the classroom.
I'm just using a standardized test as an example of how you can focus on specific issues and skills.
Copyright infringement is not intended or encouraged.
However, this does not mean that you cannot create your own example.
Play creative and add a bit of technology to your course
Practice makes perfect.
Pay attention to other centers in the classroom about technology.
IdeasI usually uses my technology in two ways
Keynote and iMovieProject have an image and ask them to explain what they see.
Introduce and discuss new skills/topics with the class.
Guide new skills/topics by explaining them.
Encourage discussion
The promotion of the oral voice helps to improve the written voice and to develop the interpretation of the author's voice. (I teach ELA)
Ask students to complete Cornell notes, graphic organizers, or folds when they watch the keynote and conduct a guided discussion-able. (For me -
These will eventually become the learning binder we have built in a year. )
It is important that these materials be thought-provoking and inspiring.
End the meeting with the iMovie version of the theme class.
This is a visual and auditory review of what they have just learned.
Try to keep iMovie at 3-5 minutes.
You don't want to lose them.
The above process helps meet the needs of different learners
Vision, motion and hearing.
After that, use the media on YouTube, the school page, or the classroom blog as a comment for students and parents.
Many campuses are starting to create media libraries for various presentations and videos by department.
The animation theme for IMovieHere is another video tutorial.
It's fun to add animations to make things more interesting.
Here are the basic steps of the video tutorial. 1)
Prepare animation demo in keynote 2)
Export to quicktime 3)Convert . mov to . mp44)Import .
