Digital Story Brainstorming

I was thinking of making a video for my mom's birthday, but now I'm not so sure. It seems to me that this is a video that I feel I'll need to spend more time than I have in class on. And it's occurred to me that saying it in this blog may totally ruin the surprise (hi, mom!), but, hey. I'm brainstorming here, so I think it can be forgiven.

Other alternative: I was considering doing a "what is science?" video to connect with the opening day activity that I have them do. They each get a notecard and have to draw an image or a symbol that represents what they think science is or what science means to them. I have a lot of images from various trips that I could utilize for this - the Galapagos Islands, fossils beds in Colorado, flowers in Aberdeen (Scotland)...

The issue is: which is more important? More necessary now?

I feel the pressure to do something that connects to school: this is an education class after all.

Note: Need script and storyboard. Use blank ppt slides.
