Photo Story as a final

For a portion of their final, I had my English students create their own photo stories. All in all, they seemed to enjoy the project, in that it was something different for them to do. Each student selected a topic of interest, such as motocycles, guns, the Twilight movie saga, friends and relatives. One student took the assignment literally by creating a fictional story, then matched different parts of the story with selected pictures off the internet. She put in a lot of extra time, writing outside of class time! The students found the program fairly easy to work with and also managed to figure out how to download their choices of music off the internet.
It felt good to introduce something that was technologically new to them.
