Learning about Flash...

On Monday, I attended an all day workshop on successfully creating Flash based animation for the classroom. What can I say but, WOW! This was a basic course with Flash and it allowed us to import images, use motion animation techniques and work with video, etc. I hadn't done a lot with Flash before this and so it was a lot of new information. I definitely learned a lot and will be looking for more opportunities to learn more about Flash. One of the great things about this course was that the instructor really knew a lot about Flash. It helps when the instructor is really knowledgable like he was. He also created a moodle site for us to join that contained all the information that we used in class and other resources in order to help us in the future. There are actual science support files for us to use and view as well. I can defintitely see myself using Flash animation in science to create things that go with what I am teaching. Bottom line: this workshop got my mind going with the possibilities with Flash and can't wait to do more with it.
