Today, we had some of our junior students (G.7) visit the senior students in their classrooms. This is an event, which helps promote registration for these students at the senior level.
I was asked to take a group of grade 7s to the Media Lab. So, I gave TVnima a go based on my experiences with the program this past weekend (see previous posts). The 30 second introduction was well received by the students, in fact they answered the avatar when asked. It helped of course that I modelled this behaviour and interacted with 'Alex' myself. My lines were "I'm fine Alex how are you"/"Thanks for the introduction Alex". You will note were these lines fit in when you watch the video:
Overall, well worth the time. In fact many of the students indicated that they were going to play with TVnima when they got home!
