Alien Sunrise: an Experimental Student Project using Macromedia Flash and Video Capture.

Students will create a Flash movie of their own design that ties in with the unit they are working on.

 

 

To view a Flash movie, you need a player such as that from Macromedia, or from Irfanview.

 

Go back to the Astronomy Home Page.

Procedures:
  1. Refer students to the Web Page Rubric for guidance on rating a web page.  This could be adapted to use for rating a PowerPoint presentation.
  2. Employ Macromedia Flash for design of the Flash movie.
  3. Capture video  using software such as Adobe Premier.
  4. Design a web page employing the Flash movie and the captured video.
