Steps For Project Based Digital Learning
Knowledge established Composition Teamed partnership & assignment Storyboard Film shoot Digital editing Spotlight event
The tools allow for student expression.
Why is this such a powerful tool for student learning?
Rief 1993 says that students retain: 10% of what they read 20% of what they hear 30% of what they see 50% of what they see and hear 70% of what they say 90% of what they say and do
Effective teaching usually combines several approaches, or multisensory instruction, so the
child uses more than one sense at a time while learning
