PART B - Storyboard and Script

For our Group Leadership Project (a Wordle Tutorial for Educators), Team4Tech created a storyboard and script using a shared PowerPoint presentation on Google Docs. Click the following link to view our work: Team4TechWordleScriptandStoryboard

Thus far, Abbie kicked us off by creating a shared PowerPoint to start our project.  She gave an example and listed the step-by-step instructions required to create a Wordle.  I added to the presentation by creating an Introduction/Attention-getter slide and a few slides titled "Why Wordle?" to explain the logic behind using Wordle in the classroom.  I also did some minor editing of the wording on a few of Abbie's slides.  

Therefore, as a group, we started the Storyboard and Script AFTER the PowerPoint itself.  Because of this, we had to "work backwards" a little bit--describing and scripting the slides that Abbie and I had already created, but then mapping out the other slides that had not yet been generated in the presentation.  

The Final Work distribution is as follows:

• Everyone:  Add any additional examples and details by Monday night, Feb. 21st.
  
• Abbie:  Incorporate various examples gathered during Computers class from students and record full voice-over of script
  
• Wheatley:  Generate FINAL product (recording, final editing of all slides, etc.) in conjunction with Abbie

I am looking forward to creating our final product.  Wordle is a tool that many teachers don't know about yet, and it is simple to use plus a GREAT way to get students to engage with reading and writing in any content area! :)
