21st Century Educator

Below is a copy of my media assignment for ETEC 531.  I was working on something much better using Adobe Premier Pro CS4 but at the last minute couldn't get past some weird export errors.  Very frustrated, I decided to redo the project using Microsoft Photostory 3, which is incredibly easy to use.  Unfortunately ease of use usually translates into inability to make real customization, and that certainly occurs here.  Wish I had more time to work on this, but it's due today!
