Creativity and New Media

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CRQpVXkcrY

In the hyperlink above, I created a youtube video for a school assignment. I worked on my 8th-grade Spanish project to teach Spanish in a fun, innovative way. My group decided that creating a song that utilizes video content, lyrical genius, and mashup of audio will capture the attention of our audience. I begin the video by talking about the subject of the song. The song is called "Las Fruitas" describing the different fruits in Spanish while I go around the supermarket. In the video, you can see a combination of numerous fruits flashing in your face while you follow the lyrics to the song.

Our teacher wants us to use the internet to make learning Spanish in a fun and creative way. We found that using pictures, words, and objects people use every day will provide the perfect way for viewers to learn fruits in Spanish with a fun twist. The new media allows education to be seen in new ways providing teachers, students and anyone who wants to use this content for their own educational purposes. I hope everyone learned their fruits in Spanish after watching this video.

  1. Hi AMal, I love the idea. It is one of the advantages that new media offers us. When it comes to learning a new skill set the variations and the ease of trial and error are incomparable. Your language video is a perfect example, it is so much easier to learn it by hearing. There is a reason why Rosetta Stone, the most popular platform out there for foreign language classes, is now moving there content from cd to a video.
