Questions for Brainstorming Session

Meeting Home

     
Question #1 What are some of the ways moving images are currently being integrated into the classroom experience? Are students developing resources that integrate moving images into their assignments? Are classroom assignments taking advantage of inexpensive software that will allow for the manipulation, editing and re-purposing of moving images?  
Question #2 Since core instructional strategies generally revolve around reading, writing, listening and speaking (rather than viewing), how can MIC assist in supplementing core strategies through the use of moving images? What types of content would be useful? (lesson plans, activities, contextualizing information, etc.)  
Question #3 Moving images can be used as an effective tool to present an argument or construct an hypothesis. What ways can MIC/AMIA assist in developing resources that will support “reading the screen” as opposed to watching the screen for entertainment?  
Question #4 What difficulties do you come across that prevent the integration of moving images into the classroom experience? (technical constraints, file formats, file sizes/download times, copyright restrictions, etc.)  
Question #5 What types of educational resources and training opportunities would you be interested in having MIC/AMIA sponsor?  
Question # 6 What opportunities should MIC provide for interaction and feedback? (newsletters  
Question # 7 Should science educators be able to add annotations to MIC union catalog records, such as recommended audience levels and recommended use?
