This week in class we had a guest lecturer named Rich McCue. He manages UVic’s Digital Scholarship Commons. This is a really cool resource that I was unaware of until now. It offers free courses in a number of different topics, such as Microsoft Excel and iMovie. It even offers “digital badges” that link to the course outcomes, which is useful for resumes and portfolios. I spent the bulk of the class working through the workshop on iMovie. It wasn’t too difficult as I already had a passing familiarity with the software from high school video projects I had done. I uploaded the video I created with some basic green screen and audio editing below. We also discussed screen capture software and the opportunities that it provides. For example, it can be a very useful resource for doing lectures online.
