With the digital age there is always an opportunity to connect to some form of media. What role do you think Film plays in our society? How can we effectively use movies in our classroom?]]> 2017-11-02 19:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mccadi/h4ovgk0vnpg/wish/203090807 mgeiger4 https://padlet.com/mccadi/h4ovgk0vnpg/wish/203149299 Dina, the essay by Joshua Reid is wonderful. As a movie lover, I identified with so much of what Reid said. I also appreciated how balanced the essay is, pointing out that movies are used to spread evil as well as joy. 
In my classes, I don't assign full length movies because of time constraints, but do assign short videos to compliment readings. I also use video editing software such as EdPuzzle and PlayPosit to embed questions right in the videos. this makes lessons more interactive and engaging. ]]> 2017-11-03 00:27:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mccadi/h4ovgk0vnpg/wish/203149299 https://padlet.com/mccadi/h4ovgk0vnpg/wish/203558425 I often play short clips of films to show art forms and cultural references to art works we are creating or learning about.
