Web Cameras – St. Patrick’s Kilsyth

Background

We had the i can animate software in the school but were using the built in cameras in the ibooks to film.  This was working alright but I borrowed a set of web cams so we could evaluate if we should purchase cameras to use.

How ICT supported learning and teaching

  • Able to give the after school group and pupils confidence and skills to embrace new technologies.
  • Pupils have been able to work cooperatively in groups to create dialogue, action and events for a short animation. Each group was responsible for filming and editing their work.
  • Impact / conclusion
  • The loan was highly successful in allowing us to see that we could use the animation software more effectivly with the webcams.
  • We are now looking to purchase our own cameras.
