Adult students typically attend a rigorous training course and have to pass the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technician (NREMT) exam before they are certified to work as EMTs. Training courses usually include classroom lectures and hands-on training. Many of the classroom lectures are scenario-based on the students have to apply their training to determine the proper medical responses. The topics covered during the lectures often include a lot of medical terms related to the body’s anatomy, medical procedures, and names of medication. For many of these lectures, having the students create digital stories would enhance the classroom lectures and create a foundation for higher levels of learning.
I’ve created a digital story as an example and I would
appreciate your evaluation. The example is linked to my curriculum page which
provides students with useful information about creating a digital story. It’s
the last link on the page and I am eager to hear your comments!
Fred,
ReplyDeleteI like that your digital story immediately introduced me to a new piece of technology! Sway looks a lot like a PowerPoint, but accessible online. It ran very smoothly on my laptop. While this is not an error per say, I would suggest also providing a way to look at your curriculum page as well. Your blog post didn't clarify what you were thinking of producing in terms of content, so while I can make a guess based on your example I think it would be helpful to see where the example is coming from. I do believe this activity is appropriate for the adult learners for which it is intended. Thank you for sharing your hard work!

Hi Emma,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the response. You actually viewed my post before I was finished. I was working out the links between my blog and the curriculum page. Everything has been updated and I would be interested in hearing your comments. Sorry for the confusion.-Fred
