Once the video was created, I presented it to the teachers in the format of an email.
Below are the directions that the math teachers and I developed. The questions are anticipated questions that we thought the students might come up with. The math teachers determined the math that transpired from the footage, while the technology integration specialist delivered the video for classroom use.
Act 1: Show this video Students may need a slow version
Act 2: Allow students think time...take on questions.
Questions that may be asked.
1. How many steps are there?
1a. How are the steps to be numbered? Where is zero?
2. Do both teachers start on the same step?
3. Is Mr. Mihalski taking two steps at a time?
4. Do we want to know the step or the time that they will meet?
5. Is Mr. Mihalski really wearing two different shoes?
This will be messy. Avoid telling the students the answers. However, it may require some input from you.
Act 3: Watch the answer.
*I realize the time in the videos is inaccurate. While it will be changed for next time, it gave students a great opportunity to use their BYOD and retime the action.
For the students to view the video footage, I created a classroom blog with the teacher. This gave the teacher a digital presence on the web. See the students in action:
