In this article, I will explain each step in creating a digital film using Movie Maker. It allows users to combine pictures and video footage together with text, music, and narration into a digital video file, thus lending itself particularly well to digital storytelling projects (Czarnecki, 2009 EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative, 2007). Movie Maker 6.0, which is standard on all Windows Vista systems, is a program designed to allow people with relatively little technical knowledge to be able to do exactly this. Nonetheless, one technique that seems to have passed these tests and become quite popular is that of digital storytelling, a type of project in which students must put together pictures, text, video footage, and their own recorded voices to form coherent video narratives (Adams, 2009 Hull & Katz, 2006 Ianotti, 2005 Ohler, 2006 Robin, 2008). However, technology continues to evolve rapidly (Bitner & Bitner, 2002 Wang & Reeves, 2003), making it difficult to find lasting, meaningful, and effective ways to use technology to help students achieve their learning goals. User friendly and available in many languages.Īll levels of education are feeling the push to integrate technology into teaching. PC with Windows XP or Vista, 7.04 MB free memoryĪvailable as a free download included with most versions of Windows XP and Windows VistaĪllows users to combine video, pictures, audio, and text to create videos.
