Badge 11 – Creating

Creating is the process of putting elements together to form a coherent or functional whole, where elements are reorganized into a new pattern or structure through generating, planning or producing.  Two aspects of creating are publishing and video-casting. Publishing in text, media, or digital formats requires a huge overview of the the content being published and the process and product of publishing it.  Video-casting involves students in the editing process by capturing and creating content to produce unique products.

In my student led lesson, students were able to publish their curated content about sites, media, and journals they found on the internet onto a Pinterest themed board.  The process of ‘pinning’ themed content onto a board, creates a new avenue for others to find and explore points of interest.  The process and final result of a Pinterest board is a great example of creating.

In the final micro-teaching lesson, Liz and I plan on using an app called Educreations.  This app will allow students to take photos, drawings, and text, and incorporate them into a personal narrative about a specific experience, or topic they want to share.  The interactive white board app will allow students to create a unique video to showcase or show competence in a specific topic of interest.
