WIKI Curriculum Page AR#5
This week in my technology class, we were asked to create a WIKI site to publish a curriculum page regarding digital storytelling. Last week, we came up with a project using digital storytelling, and I created a Halloween story project where my students would get to create their own Halloween story. For this assignment, I changed my idea a little with regards to tips from the outside world, and decided that we would create our own stories, and put our ideas together as a class to create a class Halloween digital story! I was very excited to get to start my own WIKI since I have heard so much about them through colleagues and friends. I used the template provided by our professor, Curriculum Page Template, to create my curriculum page outline. I found this very simple to use, and loved the layout that provided links to each different page. For kindergarten, these would need to be reviewed as a class with the teacher, since they do not read very well, and would need guidance and help throughout the entire process. I loved how easy the steps were to not only create the WIKI, but when it comes time to work with my students, it will be a quick and simple step by step process that will be a breeze to swing through. You can access my WIKI page HERE :) to see what our Halloween story will look like! Enjoy :)

I also found creating my curriculum page rather easy to create but I must admit that when I initially looked at the curriculum page template I thought it would be much harder then it actually was. Another assumption that I had about creating my curriculum page was that it wouldn't take that long to complete but it actually took longer then expected to complete.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of having your students create Halloween stories using digital storytelling. I feel that this gives the students a chance to creatively express themselves. Putting the stories together as a class is something that will motivate your students because they have the chance to integrate their story with their classmates stories.
