Geography of South Carolina
This video was created because students had difficulty remembering what areas are the Low country, Midlands, and Up country. This video could be used for elementary schools, when students start to learn about South Carolina, or middle school, where they are expected to know these three terms. This video could be accessed on a Learning Management System such as Edmodo or a teacher could play this brief video to the students during class.
The map of the three South Carolina areas was created using Adobe Photoshop.
In terms of Mayer's multimedia principles, the video follows signaling since I utilize a consistent yellow arrow to point out important features on the map. Also, the video shows the segmenting principle because I break down the three areas of South Carolina. Additionally, I tried to converse to the learners instead of formal lecture, which hopefully helps the learner understand the material better.
Robin Williams' Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, and Proximity, or CRAP principles of visual design were utilized in this video. First, the yellow arrow was good contrast against the blue background of the PowerPoint. Next, consistent colors and arrows were used often in this video. Finally, the arrows pointed to important elements, which created proximity.
