Video Narrative
June 6 - 8560 Case-Geyer Library
Lead by Sarah Kunze and Debbie Krahmer
The Library and ITS staff are once again offering a three-day video narrative workshop in
June. Many faculty participants from lasts year's workshop went on to assign video
narrative projects in their classes this academic year. With our new Digital Learning &
Media Center on level 5 of Case library slated to open in the Fall of 2012, we now have
dedicated learning spaces for new media, allowing us to offer even better support for
students and faculty.
In order to feel comfortable assigning a video project in a class, our experience has
shown that a faculty member must first create their own video project to get a sense of
what is involved. This workshop offers an opportunity for this to happen. Learn how to
construct a simple video narrative using photos, text, voice recordings, and music.
During the three-day, hands-on workshop we will cover both the aspects of writing a
narrative for video and the technical steps to editing video.
The goal of the workshop is not to make you a video expert, but rather to give you an
appreciation of the process so that you can extend the option to your students as a part
of your course assignments.
Wikipedia Editing
June 12 - 13345 Case-Geyer Library
Lead by Sarah Kunze and Debbie Krahmer
Why should you include an exercise in Wikipedia editing in your course? Hear from Prof.
Noor Khan, along with her Senior Seminar students who completed a project doing just
that for their HIST459 project. Learn how these types of projects improve student engagement
and leave your students with 21st century skills that most will use in their careers and
personal lives. Learn how Campus Ambassadors can assist you with sample syllabi, course
handouts, and help in mapping out a project to address your specific learning goals for
your course.
The Cure for Cartophobia – A CEL Web Mapping Workshop
June 18 - 19345 Case-Geyer Library
Lead by Zlatko Grozl, Jesse Henderson, Peter Rogers, and Dan Wheeler
This workshop will introduce web-based mapping as a teaching tool that can be used in
the classroom and for student projects. The first day will start with Google Maps, move
on to Google Earth including how one can create and add features to Google Earth,
and conclude with a look at user-friendly sources of digital map data such as the
Google Earth Community, geoportals, and the U.S. government’s National Atlas. The
second day will be optional and provide an opportunity for participants to work on a
personal web mapping project with the CEL members leading the workshop.
Video Narrative Workshop has been rescheduled for later in the summer. Originally listed for June 6 - 8, now we are looking at the 2nd week in August. We'll change the registration page when we firm up the date and re-advertise the session. I hope you can make it at this new time.
