Lights, Camera, Reflection! Digital Movies: A Tool for Reflective Learning
Genereux, Annie Prud'homme; Thompson, William A.
Journal of College Science Teaching, v37 n6 p21-25 Jul 2008
At the end of a biology course entitled Ecology, Evolution, and Genetics, students were asked to consider how their learning experience had changed their perception of either ecology or genetics. Students were asked to express their thoughts in the form of a "digital story" using readily available software to create movies for the purpose of reflecting upon their learning. The digital stories were found to be an effective method of supporting student reflection upon their learning in a way that is highly attractive to students. (Contains 1 figure, 3 tables, and 1 resource.)
