Self-Help Through Video Analysis

The next task for us in IP&T 286 is to use Studio Code to analyze our own teaching. Sure, most of the time I'd care to not have to relive my teaching experience for that day, but supposedly it's good for me. I could probably go through a list of criteria and tell you what I did wrong and what I did right, but if it's on film (or digital video as the case may be), then my teaching is at least immortalized to poke, prod, overanalyze, and laugh at for...well, forever. However, I will say this: when I watch my teaching on video, I actually find a lot of good things among the bad and can improve from those things as well. Haha! Take that, self doubt!

iMovie Final

Here is my iMovie project about stealing a base in all its finished glory. Please, hold your applause 'til the end. I think as an actual coach, baseball is the most practically applicable use of iMovie to actually teach skills. Baseball skills are very intermittent in the games themselves, so batting, pitching, fielding, and baserunning can all be easily taught and captured using video. As I get faster using the program, I know I'll be able to more effectively use it throughout my career and my life.
