Sunshine in the Life

That is the first time I use this video-making tool. That is very amazing. Just by registrating, you can make a video for 30 seconds for free. It is very simple to do that. Three steps need to be done to produce a video. Firstly you need choose a video style. There are lots of styles contained music and background pictures. Secondly target pictices need to be added from your computer or social network website, such as Facebook, Twitter and instergram. And then, Writing down any text you want to show in the video. The last thing you may need to do is giving a title to your own video. Moreover, you can share this video to others through many website. I think teacher can use this in order to make their lessons interesting and have more fun. Music and picture are best ways to arouse students` interests, draw their attention and active atomosphere of the whole classroom.

Reaction to videos about education revolution

Educational Change Challege

    Through this video, two main ideas come up to my mind. First is about the change of teachers` teaching methods. There is a sentence in the video is that the class cannot be carried on if the teacher is from the past. It means that students are always changing; their ideas are not like these students in the old age. So teachers need to change the teaching methods in classroom, or they will not have an efficient class. And also the ways to publish information need to be improved, or the students may not easy to accept it or have no interests to learn it.

Social Media Revolution 2011
    This video tells me the influence and importance of media such as some social network today. More and more people start to use engines to learn new things. It saids that the number of followers of three big stars in Twitter are huge than the whole population of several counties. I think social network is a good and popular way for teacher having connection and reaction with students, which has less stress for their communication than face-to-face.
