Video
The video making using an app called Camtasia was helpful for me to learn both content and the video-making process. More importantly, it is my first time experiencing video making using an app called Camtasia. At first, I am worried about the video-making process in Camtasia, however, I am optimistic and looking forward to produce an informative video. Firstly, I design a PowerPoint to deliver during a video tutorial. The challenge while designing PowerPoint was the limited information given in a textbook for 10 minutes video tutorial. However, I manage it by exploring additional interesting information from google and discussing it with my friends. At last, I made 22 slides PowerPoint slide to deliver within 10 minutes. Thus, I used a constructive approach to come up with enough PowerPoint slides.
The topic called the effect of sunlight on green plants is simple, however, I find it very difficult to come up with 10 minutes presentation slides. Thus, I browse through the internet for additional information on the topic. Amongst the variety of information, I like the investigation process to check on whether the plant needs sunlight or not because children will learn through doing and seeing. Most of the Experts believe that children learn more through doing on the concept. The link given below will take you to the PowerPoint presentation for the tutorial.
Secondly, the process of making the video was fun and engaging to me since I am experiencing the first time producing my own tutorial after many years of watching on others tutorial. It was also a sense of achievement in my life.
I face many challenges while making this video using Camtasia. Firstly, it was very difficult for me to complete on time as I take 15 minutes twenty-one seconds to complete my whole tutorial. Thus, I cut some unnecessary information and increase the pace of delivery. Hence, I learn how to overcome challenges while making tutorial.
I experienced many enriching knowledge of creating video on Camtasia. I knew how to make a video tutorial in a better and creative ways. The skills like how to add interesting animation, text, and background music are available in the Camtasia that contribute towards making tutorial more effective. The link given below will take you in my video.
Thirdly, It was very constructive when we share this video with friends through a Facebook group. We shared our tutorial in a group ( IV PCA EduTech 2020) for our teacher and friends to comment. There were many positive comments that boost my interest and motivation to continue working on a video tutorial. Through the comments, I knew that my video tutorial will cater to the needs of children.
I realized that it is important to share or show our work to friends to receive comments to construct our work in a better way. Hence, posting videos on Facebook and giving comments and receiving comments helps us to construct our knowledge.
As a future teacher, I am committed to produce a video tutorial on difficult concept and provide to children. By doing that, children will access to that concept anytime and from anywhere to re-visit what is forgotten. So, they need not require to get back to the teacher faced to face for the doubt. Hence, it is one of the constructive approach of teaching and learning using technology.
Thank you
