**What themes, ideas, or directions do you want to take with your video project?**
As a global theme I'm looking for something that relates to teaching, learning, and technology. I'll suggest some ideas, please **add your own ideas**. ~ Mr.OC How will you inspire your future students? Grow a bountiful garden and teach students how to have a green lifestyle!
 * Dreams and Goals: Why do you want to teach?
 * Then, Now, When: Your early experiences as a learner, your experiences right now, what you imagine when you start teaching.
 * Essential Events: one or two teaching/learning experiences that changed your life.
 * What fears and challenges do you have regarding teaching? (Your life during your first year as a teacher)
 * What are your goals as an educator? How do you hope to incorporate technology into the classroom?
 * What ticks you off??? Find something in the education process (as a whole or in local schools) that bothers you and make a video about it and include your ideas on how to fix it.
 * How can technology benefit your future students?
 * Who are the people responsible for inspiring you to become a teacher? (ex. parents, former teacher, mentor, etc)
 * How will you inspire your future students? (What will you use to motivate them, make learning fun and exciting, etc. )
 * How can you use technology to coach a sport?
 * How about a personal narrative done as a movie trailer that illustrates how and why you want to be a teacher, or what you hope to bring to the classroom? Could have a lot fun with this one!
 * Develop an imovie with animation based on actual student writing as a tool to encourage student literature development.
 * Can you describe your personal teaching style? Present what is important to you in how you teach. How do you want to arrange your class or give out assignments?
 * Can you present the real life application of what you want to teach your students. Perhaps we can even make a learning video for our future students about a subject and how it applies to real life.
 * What do yo think about education in the US today? How to improve it? What are your plans as a teacher in regards to education and technology or class structure? Why do you want to teach?
 * Adapt your Powerpoint presentation to video. Use a NETS-T Standard as the focus?
