Week 8: Multimedia Project


Assignment: Multimedia Project

Uses in the Classroom: Students could use Storify to track events effecting their school community by using social media sites, tracking hashtags and finding coverage in local media. This could be a great way for a fledgling Journalism to make engaging multimedia articles. Another way this sort of project could be used would be to have students track/outline a research project with their resources. Storify, to me, is more accessible and easier to use than evernote or google's note application, keep.

Issues to Consider: Students will need to have access to a computer and the internet. Some class time would need to be spend on helping students use the online application. Some students might need a modified workload depending on their supports, they might need to only map out their ideas on paper. Lessons about being a good digital citizen and appropriately using social media would need to precede a project like this.
