Video feedback/learner response

  1) Type up your feedback from your teacher. Main point was the learn that not all videos/images can have and contrapuntal sound added to thrm 2) Type up your feedback from fellow students - you can summarise key points if several students give you similar feedback. Good Images x4 Needs better quality x7 Needs description Good use of contrapuntal x7  Transition needed Good audio x3 Resolution of images x2 Good use of parallel x6 3) Now  reflect  on your work and write your own evaluation of your video. Write a 'What went well' (WWW) paragraph and a paragraph for 'Even Better If' (EBI) underneath the rest of your feedback.  WWW- I had good use of parallel sound and had used good images. The images matched the sound nicely in the beginning.  EBI- The contrapuntal part of the video needs improvement. I learned that some images just don't go with contrapuntal sound. 4) L earner response: compare your own video against your evaluation of the  top three videos in the cla
