This week’s assignments required me to step outside of my comfort zone and record myself talking. I created a podcast, video, and interactive video. My podcast introduced the topic of hemostasis. I actually found this process very easy, but hated to hear myself! I may would use a podcast for my online classes; however, I think the video would be a better option. All of my courses have a visual component, and a podcast leaves that out. Images are the best way to explain primary hemostasis, and a video allows me to show pictures of what I'm explaining. The video was a bit more challenging to create. I do not have the patience to edit videos. I do not see myself making videos in the future. I really enjoyed creating my Edpuzzle video. I like being able to choose videos that already exist and edit them for my own purposes. This was much easier than creating a video from scratch. I loved being able to add questions to make the video interactive. I was able to take a simple video and create a quiz on the details not mentioned. I plan on creating more for my students to use for review. I will also be able to see their strengths and weaknesses in the subject matter. Chapter 8 mentioned several animation applications such as Google Sketchup and SAM Animation. Applications such as these would be a great way for my students to apply the information presented. I found I had to review the topic thoroughly while creating my projects this week and last week. Instead of the usual poster board, I think I will have my students create an animation. They will have to think through the material to create, which will lead to a better understanding of the subject. I have enjoyed using Edupuzzle and learning about other interactive apps this week. I look forward to implementing them for class projects and teacher prepared materials. Please check out my projects from this week and let me know what you think.

I have to agree that my favorite project of the three this week was the Edpuzzle. I incorporate a lot of TEDtalks and youTube videos in my classes. It will be great to know if the students are actually getting any use out of them!
