Are there resources on the web that would be helpful? Put links to those sites here. http://punahouculturalidentity.wikispaces.com/ : This is a link to a survey created by the Asian History class at Punahou this week. These questions may help you to think differently about the challenge. How might you respond to these questions?

Some ideas:

Kids might create a Google Maps file that has information about particular places Kids could create a **VoiceThread**[|?] presentation that has photos and narration Kids might do a "Community Walk" which is another way of doing an interactive map with photos Create a "Comics Sketch" using Comic Life or [|www.mainada.net/comics] Vuvox Collage: Place images, videos, and text in a long, scrolling strip to make a scroll-like presentation [|www.vuvox.com] In iMovie or **GarageBand**[|?], kids can do an enhanced podcast with images over narration. Using iWeb, kids can create a web page that shows images and captions. Using **PhotoBooth**[|?] or iMovie, kids can use the built-in webcam to record themselves interviewing another person.

Trying to shoot a movie is time-consuming and the demand for cameras is likely to be pretty high. It is recommended that students first explore the options with the laptop before jumping into shooting an iMovie, reserving cameras, etc. but it is still a viable option
