Give us an honest appraisal of your journey around trying to produce your Capstone Project. What problems have you encountered? How will you solve them?
My journey has not been what I expected it to be. Throughout the entire Innovative learning program at Touro University I have learned a lot from my research and from the other classes I have taken, that will help me in producing my capstone project. I have learned about many different tech tools that I can use in the classroom and show on my capstone website. Some of the main tech tools I now use because of this program that will be shown on my website are edpuzzle, adobe spark, screencast, quizzizz, kami, google classroom, google slides and docs, pear deck, and the list goes on. I know that because of this program I will continue to explore technology tools to use in the classroom with my students. I have also learned about 21st century skills and what a 21st century classroom should look like. I am excited about everything I have learned and how it has helped me to become a better teacher. I have encountered problems along the way but I was able to overcome them with a little perseverance and growth mindset. What aha’s have you encountered as you watch mini-documentaries and past capstone videos? How are they different? Think about who you are creating the mini-documentary for? What essential points will be most important to them and how will you address them in your storytelling? Watching these mini documentaries and the other past capstone videos have been great. I like to see what others have done for their capstone and how a documentary should look. I will be creating my mini-documentary to inspire other teachers to take their small ideas and push them to do more with them. My documentary will show my thinking throughout this research journey and why I decided on my topic. I think the most important part of making a documentary is showing the heart of the people involved which is what my video will do. I am very excited to continue to develop my documentary and show everyone my journey through this program.

I like the how you are going to make a documentary focus on the "heart" of the subjects. I have never made a documentary so I am a bit nervous, I will keep your suggestion in mind and I am hoping it will work out well. Thanks for sharing Krista.

The journey that you've explained here is quite sequential and hopefully will be easily shown through your capstone project. I like how you're encouraging teachers to take their small ideas and push them forward. We all tend to have small ideas... but for a variety of reasons only some ideas come to fruition. You definitely have a great way of helping others see that it's doable. I look forward to seeing your documentary.
