  1. David,
    I especially liked the mixture of video and text to support your topic of Adult Autism. The part of the video that was very successful was the formatting of the video, and usage of graphics, audio, and video. While watching your video, I wondered about the amount of text on the slides during narration of text. Maybe you could make the text into bullets of information. You might be interested in this resource:

    I definetly learned more about autism and how to work with autistic students through your presentation. Great work!

  2. Hi David,
    I enjoyed our Skype conversations. :) I especially enjoyed viewing the personal videos on the daily lives of Adults with Autism. I thought you might me interested in this

    I work with an autistic inclusion student who comes to my class for reading and math. He is high functioning and a quick learner. I enjoy having him in my class.

  3. David,

    I was please to see that you decided to research and produce a video on autism. We have a small percent of students in our school who are on the spectrum.

    I really enjoyed watching the job placement experiencing of Jonathan. “Everything in the mirror is backwards.” What a perfect way to perceive the differences in perspective. It reminds me of my belief in the African proverb “it takes a village to raise a child,” and your video helped reinforce that perception. We are all in this together.

    Thank you for sharing,
    Jen

  4. Hi David,
    First of all I liked your topic and the video when the students were learning about "Dalton's atomic Theory". I liked the text effects too. What software have yo used for video editing and text effects?
