The Countdown Has Begun ...

The course starts in three weeks. So I thought it's  time to start creating some stuff. It took me five minutes to make this video that lasts 1:48. Of course, it's far from perfection, to say the least:) And it was my initial intention to post it as it was done - at first attempt. There are some reasons for this decision. Firstly, I really want to learn something new during the course and even while getting prepared  before it starts. Secondly, I didn't choose the program that I've been working with a lot, because I'd like to observe the learning process.    So I've taken this app that I haven't used yet (maybe it will be new for somebody else).

  1. Hi Elena,

    What a good video! VideoScribe - is this the tool you used? I've never heard of it but I'll have to try it out :)
    I applaud your reasons for doing it as well - to learn a new tool, and try something you've not done before.
    Thanks for sharing on your blog.
    Chris

  4. Elena, what a great video. I'm determined to master one of these methods during my MOOC time, and I think this is the program I will use. Thanks for posting it. Not only am I learning a new tool, I'm also realising my shortcomings in creativity, which is giving me something to work on. This is a real challenge!
