Animoto http://animoto.com/play/1xgTYneFPuyDNeCcPDaEdQ This is the link to my Animoto project. I found this web 2.0 tool fairly easy to use. I used Flickr for all the photos which allows copyright free photos and images to be used.

This is very easy to use and I've heard of many teachers using it for their website. I think I'll consider changing my wiki at school with a glogster.

I tried Voice Thread. I heard about it a few years ago at a conference. It was fairly intuitive. I had to figure out why my voice wasn't recording on my mac. Duh! Mute button was on. Other than than that, I enjoyed playing around on it.
What would the voice thread be used for in education?
ReplyDeleteI think it's great for a student to retell a story, share information such as a biography, etc. The student can practice and read his or her notes instead of standing in front of the classroom. This can be a huge advantage for many students.
