A. Check the World
War I in the LIMIT BY CONFLICT OR ERA Search Screen.
B. Select YES at the DIGITIZED COLLECTION Box (or VIEW A DIGITAL
COLLECTION once in the entire collection)
for primary documents like memoirs, interviews, journals, letters, etc.
1. Choose a narrative and select passages to read aloud as
narration for your
documentary. Limit your recorded narrative to 2:00.
2. Return to the DIGITAL COLLECTIONS for images to save and
include as visual support of your chosen narrative. (Always
collect the source names and dates so you can give credit where credit
is due.)
3. Save your images into the folder labeled for your class on
your
group's iMac.
4. Using iMovie, dictate your chosen narrative into iMovie
software. (Technical Tip: Shorter selections of narration can be
recorded and assembled with iMovie rather than trying to record a
longer passage). Save your iMovie project in the folder for your group
frequently as you work.
5. Import your saved images into iMovie to accompany your
narrative. Make sure you add titles over the images to indicate
as many of the 5W's as you can about the picture you could learn from
the LOC Collection.
6. Remember to FREQUENTLY SAVE your iMovie to your group's folder
on your group's iMac as you work on it.
7. When you are finished with the documentary, share your
completed documentary to Quick Time in the CD-ROM setting.
8. Include all members of your project in the production of the
documentary. Indicate the roles played by the group members with
a tasteful and brief list of credits. (Absolutely no bloopers
allowed; this is a serious matter of historic significance to our
nation's history, and it deserves utmost respect and reverence.)
