Reflection
Reflecting
on this assignment I cannot help but remember those fun times and frustrations I
encountered in trying to carry out this task. This assignment was truly one
with ups and downs.
This
assignment was based on the use of video in the classroom to aid the process of
teaching and learning. We chose a topic that was relevant to our field. Being one
of the most important factors in anything one may consider to do, we decided to
look at safety and placed emphasis on safety gears on a construction site also
called ‘Personal Protective Gear’ (PPE). The use of this video was to make the
teaching and learning experience authentic and create a vivid learning
environment. Considering that every student in the classroom does not learn the
same way, the use of video would cater to most of their different styles for
example auditory, visual, kinestic etc.
The
first task in creating the video was to produce a story board. This was to help
us know exactly what order our video was going to take and what we would
include in our video. My group members and I sat and discussed our storyboard
and what we were going to put in. we made a presentation to the class and was
told that our story board was too graphic. We then made the necessary changes
and the next step was shooting the video.
We
set out to find a construction site in the north of the island but we were
unable to gain access to a site because of policy. Thanks to the warmth and
kindness of the East we were able to get our video. One of the challenges faced
when shooting the video was background noise and the wind. After this clip was
taken our video was put together to produce a lesson on PPE.
