Hi everyone! I decided to create a video including some images and main ideas taken from the article “Digital Ghosts in the Modern Classroom” by Ashley Hinck. I found this project to be a very fun learning experience as I had never made a video like this before. I used imovie to put my videos together as well as to add voiceovers.
My thoughts
I agree with Hinck’s arguments about the overuse of certain digital tools in the classroom and its negative effect on students creativity and their expectations of digital technology. I believe as educators we should introduce our students to websites and digital tools that will allow them to make mistakes, experiment, and have more creative freedom. This is especially important today because digital technology holds such a strong connection with our daily lives, and time spent in the classroom.
