For the final project of this summer course, we were asked to do/create/present something that would be useful to us and demonstrate our learning from the course. It was so liberating to be given the freedom to pursue what we deemed valuable to us as developing educators! This summer, I had wanted to learn how to screencast, how to use assistive chrome extensions for reading, writing, and accessibility, and how to generate closed captions in Youtube. This project was the perfect motivator to get me off my butt,
learn some new skills,
and get some university credit as a bonus.
I wanted to learn how to screencast because I will be able to use it to pass information on to my students, to empower my students to learn by teaching others, to allow those students lacking confidence to present slideshows and other materials without having to physically be in front of an audience, and to facilitate various other classroom activities.
I wanted to learn to use assistive Chrome extensions so that I will have the expertise necessary for me to differentiate for all learners in my classroom when it comes to technology. Closed captioning is important for similar reasons of accessibility. Without further ado,
