This post is dedicated to what I should have posted on November 2nd.
On this date, our class was in the midst of creating a file in Flash that had "a purpose, text, an image, and tweens". I created a file that was essentially a 7-second advertisement to "Consult Grammar Girl" on the web if you had questions about grammar.
I'm going to be perfectly frank--I personally did not see the benefit of using this program in the regular (non-technology-related) classroom. It took me sooo long to complete the final product, and I wasn't even very satisfied with it! I know that some students would catch on better than I did, but I didn't think the program itself offered enough benefit to rationalize dedicating a lot of class time to it. That's probably not what Jon (my teacher) wants to hear, but I'm just being honest. I want to implement a lot of what we've learned into my future classroom, but I don't want to include Flash.
