Overview

Step 1: Concept

• Algebra • Geometry• Trigonometry• Logarithms• Logic and Critical

Reasoning• Binomial Probabilities• Statistics• Calculus

• Envision what you want to create• Make a running list of topics• Get input from students

• Provide Context• Choose Applications• Clarify Abstractions• Demonstrate Mathematical

Calculations

Fine Tune / Select Specific Focus Area

• Gather general knowledge, examples, quotes

• Collect images, video clips, infographics

Step 2: Script

• Introduction• Context – Make the topic resonate• History – Why was this created?• What does the topic mean?• How do you do the process?• How will this apply to real life?• Closing

Script Structure

Script Refining• Grammar• Simple (Is it readable?)• Don’t use complex

sentences• Use examples and

anecdotes

Script Uploading• Script software• Copy/paste script to

software• Modify script settings

Step 3: Record

Set Up• Camera• Tripod• Teleprompter• Microphone

Surroundings• Good Lighting• No Noise• Clean Background

Tips• Practice• Teleprompter Speed• Readability• Flow• Re-edit• Smile even if it looks

funny• Loud, clear voice

Step 4: Edit

• iMovie – comes with Macs• Adobe Premiere• Final Cut Pro

Software

Basic Editing• Download footage• Video splicing• Color/filter • Transitions

Adding Media• Audio – Voice and music• Images – Overlay related images• Captions – To highlight words or

images
