I am sure it is great for assessments and for the dancers to watch themselves back! :) I will let you know how the resolution is!Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02168480272192064844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220254989757566466.post-7093526699761346792010-01-15T21:36:56.948-05:002010-01-15T21:36:56.948-05:00It's definitely good to have documentation! ...It's definitely good to have documentation! I've had a flip camera (brand -- Aiptek) for a couple years, and I've used it for documenting assessments in my dance classroom (creative tasks for solo students that I need to videotape in order to score), as well as for videotaping dance when I'm traveling. It's wonderful for travel videotaping cause it's so portable. It's adequate but a bit frustrating for taping the kids dancing because the clarity isn't great. It doesn't accurately capture the first few moments when I turn it on, so I need to be sure to have it running well before the moment I want to capture; and it's a bit difficult to observe the use of energy/effort because the resolution isn't very high. If I have a choice, I borrow a colleague's higher quality digital camera, and I'm meaning to get a better one for myself. Nonetheless, it's a good beginning, and I haven't ever actually regretted the purchase. Maybe they've gotten a lot better in the last couple years too!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03264776857148478042noreply@blogger.com
