Amazing presentations using Powtoon

Always create opportunities to show students all they learn. We as teachers should allow them to be their own authors and develop their confidence and creativity. There are many applications to create videos, digital posters, ebooks and much more. Today, I`m going to show you an example using the online application PowToon .

Use ANIMOTO to make videos

If you or your students don`t have much experience making videos I think Animoto is the best option. The templates are great, you can add captions to your pictures and music is provided without the need of uploading it and you can also export your video. This is a video I made using this great application:

Make amazing videos using Animoto

ANIMOTO is an amazing tool for making videos which can be used for education. There is a great variety of styles:Kawaii, Brilliance, Coming Up Roses, Rustic, Antique Bouquet, Through the Blossoms, Fireworks, Animoto Original, Birthday Gifts,Carousel, Dance Party, Grid, Inferno, Infinite Collage, Inkwell, Paper Array, Simplicity, The Arena and The Future. Maybe, you ask how it works. Well, it`s quite simple. You add a title and subtitle (optional), choose a song or keep the one you are given, pick up your photos from social networks and then add captions to the images. After that, your video is ready. If you have a free account the video lasts 30 seconds and I think it is enough to express ideas.When students finish they may share,embed or download their videos and use it as part of a project. This is an example using Flickr photos uploaded from Second Life, this video could be created to reinforce past tense.

 *Tell your story with Title Slides between photos, or Captions on top of photos and maps
 *Choose one of the 130 licensed music tracks in our Music Lounge, or just upload your own
 *Insert maps in your videos by simply entering an address

 A STUPEFLIX BY ME:

Let`s learn a bit more about me:)

The tool that I have used is YouTube. It`s easy to share and embed videos. If you want to post your own video in YouTube you should use programs or applications such as movie maker or stuplefix. Another posssibility is to use pictures from websites or your own ones.
