In this session, you will be introduced to the many benefits of WeVideo, see teacher/student examples, and have time to create your own video.
Some of the benefits of WeVideo:
- HTML5 - meaning that it is all internet based and is perfect for chromebooks
- Great option for those who can't access iMovie
- Create videos in two modes - storyboard (simple) and timeline (more complex)
- Free subscription option
- Blends seamlessly with Google Drive & Google Classroom
- Can create individual projects and collaborative projects (multiple editors on the same video)

How to set up Google Classroom, the parent feature, different uses: sending out documents, group work, IEP student support. Using the just released student select feature.

If you've never edited video before, then this is the place! Using the ultra-simple MovieMaker application (and lots of humor), participants will edit together footage that I will provide for them. Simple video editing techniques will be covered, as well as added audio and some transitions. Participants will leave with a file they can share as well as a tutorial. This will be a fun approach to learning the basics of editing.

Interesting in bringing 3d printing into your classroom? Teachers and students now have access to a free online tool, Tinkercad, that is appropriate for students from grade 4 on up through high school. Best of all, Tinkercad can easily produce files that can be printed using any 3d printer. This session will go through the steps required to get your students into Tinkercad, give you some time to play with the platform, and then collaborate on a variety of potential uses of 3d printing in the regular ed classroom.
