Storyboard

For Assignment 4 I created a storyboard for my upcoming final project on educational uses of digital craft cutters. It outlines how we can implement digital craft cutters to encourage students to create digital designs on computers, use digital cutters to cut them, and then construct their finished product (such as pop-up cards or 3D models). Tangible hands-on activities like these can enhance learning and knowledge.

Screencasting with Camtasia


This is a brief tutorial I created on how to make reflected text using PhotoShop. The assignment was to use screencasting software to create a short educational screencast. I chose this topic because my students have been curious about how to create web graphics that look like they are reflective. It's very easy: 3 minutes to watch the tutorial and about 5 minutes to create.
