ISTELive 24: Get Started with Video Creation Projects for Students
Allowing students to create videos to showcase their learning can more fully engage them in the lessons. While many of today’s digital natives come into the classroom knowing the basics of video creation, thanks to the medium’s popularity on social platforms, they often still need guidance from teachers to connect videography to learning.
Tools from Microsoft and Adobe make it easier for K–12 educators to teach and incorporate video creation in their classes. However, even with these tools, finding a place to start can be daunting. From knowing your audience to working with artificial intelligence, videography experts weighed in at ISTELive 24 in Denver.
