Standard 6: Elementary teachers have an understanding of the basic concepts of the arts.

Indicator 1: Teachers understand the music vocabularies, materials, techniques, and thinking process of each arts discipline (art, music, theatre, dance).

Indicator 2: Teachers ahve an informed acquaintance with exemplary works of art from a variety of cultures and historical periods.

I met this standard by using techniques while completing this video making project . I used techinues like storybording to plan the project and using different camera angels while filming, I also acted in the movie and used editing techinues like fading transitions, adding music, cutting the scenes while making the video.

Standard 12: Working alone, or with arts speicalist teachers and/or other qualified arts progessionals, elemntray teachers are able to integrate the arts into the elementary curriculum

I met this standard by incoorperating the arts into a language arts/ technogoly assignment.

• This assignment met the following NETS-T Standards:

I: Teachers demonstrate a sound understanding of technology operations and concepts. Teachers:

B. Demonstrate continual growth in technology knowledge and skills to stay abreast of current and emerging technologies.

I met this standard by learning the skills on how to work a camcorder and how to use the program Imovie. I learned how to record different angles with the camcorder and I learned how to edit a video with the imovie program.

•VI : Teachers understand the social, ethical, legal, and human issues surrounding the use of technology in PK-12 schools and apply those principles in practice.

A: model and teach legal and ethical practice related to technology use.

I met this standard by using the release forms in  both English and Spanish languages to parents that they have to sign so students have permission to be filmed.

B: Apply technology resources to enable and empower learners with diverse backgrounds, charactersistics, and abilities.

I met this standard by using this project to reach a wide range of students. This project will empower diverse students because they will have a chance to take charge of their own work and help out with the planning, filming, and editing process.

•II :Teachers plan and design effective learning environments and experiences supported by technology.

A: design developmentally appropriate learning opportunities that apply technology enhanced instructional strategies to support the diverse needs of learners.

I met this standard by meeting the needs of the many different types of learners in my classroom by using different learning strategies to reach the students during this project.  The students can watch my video and learn from it if they are visual learners to get an idea of the concept of the project. I will also have a list of directions for how to make the video for other types of learners. I will try to reach all types of learners in my classroom with use of different strategies.

E: plan strategies to manage student learning in a technology enhanced environment

I met this standard by having my own video for them to use as a guide or example while they work on their videos so they can see what elements their video/movie must have and how a finished project looks to compare their projects to.

D: manage student learning activities in a technology enhanced environment

I met this standard by making sure all students have equal and same amount of time at the computer as other students by rotating them every so often during the assignment. I will switch the students off by having them take turns at the computer every 15 minutes there is a new person at the computer.This  will allow all students to experience the editing process of the project. I will need a camcorder and computer for each group.
