Reflecting Materials for Lesson #2

Mechanics: 
     The technologies that were used in my lesson were the smartboard, personal computers and IMovie. The teacher used the smartboard and the students used the personal computers with IMovie. The presentation with the pictures for the anticipatory set was projected up on the smartboard which is where we discussed the things that the student's observed in each picture. However, students were asked to use their personal computers to research various letters from the civil war soldiers and use those to create their IMovies. This lesson was too long because the students had not had a lot of previous experiences with IMovie prior to this activity which made it more difficult to complete the requirements of the activity in time. As a group, we spent a lot of time trying to figure out how IMovie works and then adding our content into it.
