Animoto

We did try the animoto site. It is probably great for some things but actually requires no technical skills as "they" do it behind the scenes and then email you the link. This might be good for motivational sets etc. for a particular theme, but as far as student skill building it is nill.

At first I thought it was almost useless, but I have since thought of a variety of places it would be useful for....isn't that the way using technology seems to go - as we play with it we think of more uses and places for it in our lives:)

I used amimoto with my IP 10's when they were making websites - they were able to make a link to their "music video" of pictures and they really enjoyed it! I agree that it is not necessarily a tech savey item but that it is fun for them to experiment and try it out.
Keep it up!
