Module 5

Module Five
This week we learnt about podcasting and vodcasting. I successfully embedded a vodcast into my blog of some muppets singing the manamana song. They are very cute and furry! I could use digital storytelling in my classroom in many ways.
During Term Four my Year Two class are learning about the Text Type Narrative. Students could easily record podcasts using headsets and micorphones to orally story tell. They could also view teacher selected videos from our Myclasses page. Students could view photographs and narrate their own stories. Currently during guided reading sessions my class are already using the headsets to listen to online stories, so they will be prepared for when I am confident to give them some vod and podcasts!

  1. Hi Guys,
    I have worked out how to embed you tube clips into MyClasses.
    Go to Properties>Create a Property
    Select DIY then click NEXT
    Give your property a title and description
    click NEXT
    A box will appear with lots of icos to choose from (looks a little like word)
    Selct HTML (next to paintbrush icon-middle row)
    A new window opens
    Paste your embed code into this window
    Then selct update
    You can then type instructions or information below and/or above your clip. (Note your clip won't be playing here it will be a red box with a little f in the middle-this is ok!).
    Once you've finished select save
    Then put your property in the appropriate class!
    AND YOU"RE DONE

    This is a nifty little tool!

    Have fun creating :-)
