How is that project going?

Well, as with any new project I am discovering how I could have done more planning to make the project run smoother. Many, many kudos to Leslie who suggested it and helped make it possible. Most of my students have enjoyed the process of working on computers, rather than paper and pencil or markers. Students who have finished in the two weeks alloted were those who used their time well and did not set their bar too high. I found I also had to revise my bar-not necessarily lower but become more realistic with what is possible with comic life versus iMovie. Too much writing ruins Comic Life, but there is a way to write and not be overly simplistic. iMovie, if dialog is involved, will by it's very nature involve more speech so more writing is involved. The technology has been irritating at times but we, my students and myself have become problem solvers extraordinare!!!!!
