This week I have been working through the researcher side of assignment 2B. I was finding it quite hard to understand what Jenni was looking for. I searched through the Murdoch discussions pages (http://www.murdoch.edu.au) but could not find any answers to my questions, so I went to Jenni personally. I was getting frustrated that I could figure out what I was meant to so in turn I could not start. After sending Jenni the email I awaited my reply. To my surprise what I though was correct actually was! So I started to write my sample essay. The topic I decided to write about was the use of technology in the classroom, centring on the SMART board. I searched through Murdoch catalogue (http://www.murdoch.edu.au), Google (http://www.google.com.au) and Google Scholar (http://scholar.google.com.au) through various key words like 'Interactive whiteboards', 'smartboards' and 'technology in the classroom'.
While reading through the text book, I also came across the mention of the digital storytelling. In my foundation unit, for one of our assignments we needed to make a oral presentation on our wellbeing over the last semester. I though this was a great way to present my presentation, the bonus is we also go makes on props and visuals so this was perfect. I researched on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com) and came across examples of others digital stories.
