Animoto

Animoto can be used to create powerful multimedia quickly and easily. It can be used with k-12 classes and helps to promote an understanding of visual literacy
Students can shoot and/or collect potent images, create powerful verbal audio to accompany their images or compose songs to accompany their visuals. It provokes the student to consider both the impact of their work and the media choosen for that work.
When the movie is embedded in other web 2.0 tools it encourages real world feedback on student work.
The movie below was created as a year 4 students Religious Literacy Assessment, the student wrote and performed the song, gathered the images and created this in Animoto.
Below you will find two video tutorials on how to create an Animoto account and then how to create a movie in Animoto.

Resources from Day 2
June 29th, 2007 by markwoolley · No Comments · Resources
In our discussion on net safety and appropriate use of blogs we mentioned the Federal Governments Net Alert site. This is a great resource for teachers and students alike, regardless of age level.
To further this it was suggested that teacher develop rules for students while they are using the blog. I am unable to find the original author of these blogging rules but i will republish them with full credit to the original author. Likewise, possibly from the same author is a sample letter that could be used to inform parents of your use of a blog.
For those right back at the stage of setting up a blog these Comic Life notes should help you through the process of creating an edublogs blog and starting to use it. Once you are ready to move beyond this you will find a number of helpful movies to guide you through must things that you would want to do.
The presentation options presentation is available below and may help you and your students expand your presentation options
