Mountain Pose Meditation Instructional Video
IDT300x Week 4 Assignment: Develop a storyboard and video.
Storyboard
I created my storyboard using the GoodNotes app for iPad. GoodNotes let me write and sketch in the same place, and I can easily rearrange scenes using the freeform select function. I much prefer writing by hand when brainstorming because there is more flexibility for getting my ideas out of my head, but I also prefer a digital tool that allows for easy rearranging and modifying and that can be saved and shared between devices. Using GoodNotes on iPad with the Apple Pencil allows for all of those things and was a joy to use for this assignment!
Video
I recorded the narration for the video in the Voice Recorder app for Windows, and added it to my video created using Biteable.
The instructional goal of this video is to provide learners with a meditation for their mindfulness toolkit. The learner objective is to know the benefits of a Mountain Pose meditation (it invites feelings of being grounded, calm, and confident) and to experience these benefits for themselves by following along with the video.
*Note as of March 2024: Sometime after this post was originally written, I lost access to the YouTube account where my video was hosted as well as the Biteable account where the video was made, hence its omission from this post.
Digital Media Evaluation Checklist
Here is my checklist evaluation for my Mountain Pose Meditation Video. This video directly supports a learning gap addressed by the mindfulness curriculum I have planned for the next course, IDT400x, and this is taken into account in its evaluation:
