Aimee,
First, I absolutely LOVE the cover pic of your students with the technology message. It speaks volumes... I get ' "Be fearless like a kid and try something new... You may discover a new talent and have some fun!".
Your share about the trials and the triumph of your iMovie/ PowerPoint experience sounds all too familiar for us educators. We are the ones that prepare the leaders of the world, yet they often forget what it was like in a classroom and what is necessary to create future leaders. It is good to know that you are one born to teach in that you persevered in spite of 'boring power points, unexpected learning curves, and other issues' for the sake of your kids learning. The great thing about adversity is that we often learn much more than we originally planned to teach or learn! Funny way the universe has with humor. I often feel it makes me dig deeper in so many ways, but in the end I am often glad that i got the chance to learn something new that I never would have if it had not been for the glitches. Keep pressing on, your students will remember this moment. It was great that one of them was able to contribute to the solution with the contribution of the older software version. That is teaching and learning from both sides.
