Using Movie Maker for the first time, I've run into some issues. Though problem solving is quite intuitive to my nature, I wonder why the creators neglected to incorporate more user-friendly options. It seems that the basic functions are there; you can even edit the sound clips--with some effort though. Why is it that when you add more pictures/sounds in front of previous work, it does not shift or insert the bulk of your work behind the new additions, but rather makes it overlap? I don't understand why I have to go back into the program to manually shift all else to match with the gap made by the additional pieces.
I wonder how I would help students build these problem-solving skills when it comes to technology. It seems that it requires for the user to have some experience--though not with that issue. Users would also have to have some practical sense. I have a friend who would not be able to work out issues so easily. How would I help students persevere through frustrating technical issues?
