__Gaining Students' Attention__
Show student- and teacher-created videos. SchoolTube and TeacherTube would be good resources for this, or we have examples from the last few years of the Oklahoma State Student Media Festival on DVD.

Here's an example created by teachers for future teachers: http://homepage.mac.com/lesleyu/iMovieTheater.html Boom De Yada - Original and Fourth Grade Style: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ty0QFw6SDQ (Todd)

__Recall of Prior Learning__
Before completing the last module, how many of you thought you could never create a website? The process of planning, designing, and developing your website for your webquest is very similar to planning and producing a video.

__Presentation of Material__
__Part 1__ • Instructional – The purpose of an instructional piece is to teach something. This goes beyond simply presenting facts. Examples include: tutorials, teaching tools, and interactive games with assessment. • Informational – The purpose of an informational piece is to inform the audience but not persuade opinions. Informational pieces could briefly cover multiple topics or focus on one or two. Examples include: News Programs, Biographies, Community Calendars, and Personal Websites. • Documentary – The purpose of a documentary is to document an actual event or topic beyond the scope of a typical news story. It should reflect serious research and present facts objectively without fictional matter. • Persuasive – The purpose of a persuasive piece is to present an idea, product, concept, organization or individual in a credible way, so as to change public opinion and/or encourage audience approval, support or participation. Examples include: Advertising, Public Service Announcements, and Movie Trailers. • Story – The purpose of a story piece is to tell a story, whether serious or lighthearted, fictional or non-fictional. Examples include: Comedies, Dramas, and Student/Family Experiences. • Entertainment – The purpose of a piece in this category is to entertain and/or amuse the audience in a format other than telling a story. Examples include: Music Videos, Variety Shows, Interactive Games, and Game Shows.
 * Purposes of Educational Videos:**

The most important (and most neglected) aspect of video production is the pre-production stage.
