Tech in a Lesson

Let's see. What, of all the tricks I've learned, would I like to incorporate into my curriculum and how would I do it? Hmmmm. I'm thinking that I'd like to incorporate the things we've learned in this video class to help struggling readers. Some sort of video about a character in a book, or an event in a book might be a good way to check for comprehension. I could have a student choose a character and illustrate the character's part in the plot by making a video. I'm hesitant to be too specific because I'd like to give them as few directions as possible other than to "make a video that tells me why this character is important to the plot". The product would allow me to assess the extent of the student's comprehension of characterization and plot.
