Lesson+8+of+10

Lesson 8 sees the students begin their work on their multimodal text. Throughout the unit of work students have been shown examples of newspaper articles, internet websites and comparative pictures which have each shown their own view of The Rocks area through their respective media form. This lesson will see students view Resource 4, which will act as a starting point for them to begin the creation of their own multimodal text. Students will use the iMovie program to create their text, which will document their strategy for the future case of their chosen Heritage Site. Once they have viewed the video, students will create a ‘film strip’ in order for to come up with a logical sequence of frames for their multimodal text. This does not need to be overly detailed and may be black and white however it must have enough information to allow students to begin the creation of their text. ||

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Ask students to think about the different techniques that have been used

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Focus on written, spoken and visual texts

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Discuss how and why a tool such as this could be useful to use alongside their exposition || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">The Rocks by ESTV <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;"> [] __watch?v=28kOFY4hk54__ || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">45min || <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students begin initial planning for multimodal text through creation of a film strip

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students then start their multimodal text once given approval from the teacher |||||||||| <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Students are given a piece of A2 paper to use to create a film strip that will act as their basis for their multimodal text

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Reinforce that they should keep the amount of frames to a minimum and that their text will only be between 20-30 seconds long – //‘Less is more’//

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Students then research on the internet to find a variety of images and visuals that they may wish to use in their text

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Students should focus on ensuring that they use as many different forms of text as they can – //Written, visual, verbal//

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',Helvetica,sans-serif;">- Students can use the iMacs different recording programs to use in their text – //webcam, audio recording//
