As some of you may know, I have become a Flip camera, digital moviemaking fiend.
My colleagues still laugh at an early blog post featuring a glass of water that I found captivating. Since that time my knowledge and interest in digital video has grown and I am working with the faculties of several middle and high schools with the ways this technology can be used by students in a variety of content classrooms. The possibilities are endless.
Recently, my computer was running rather sluggishly, and our tech troubleshooter discovered that I had 700 video clips on my desktop (as I said I ‘m still learning).

In future blogs I will share some of this work and the work of students.

Enjoy!
