Prezi and Sliderocket are fantastic tools for presentation on a very professional scale; the tools they provide to zoom, change directions, point out specifics, etc. increase the "interest" factor. The presenter must be very organized and specific about developing the presentation so as not to overwhelm the viewer. I think I'd like to work on a simple Prezi for use at school.

I enjoyed playing with both Storybird and Goanimate. I think I'd like to use Storybird for my primary guidance lessons. I often have a hard time finding stories that fit my subject area for the tiny ones. If I can get creative with the wording, I'll be able to make my own. I also think that Goanimate might be a possible source for use with some of my older students. I think it would be nice to have them collaborate on a story and record their own voices. I could assign a theme and see what they come up with. Could be a lot of fun and very interesting. I didn't really like the voices on Goanimate. Both of these sites could be good sources for lessons if I plan ahead and become creative with them.

Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.

This is just a first try at animoto. I know that I can produce a finer product with a little more time and planning. I'm going to enjoy playing around with this. I even shared on Facebook!

There's Tripper in my Bubblesnaps. This was a nice user friendly "thing" to work on. One try and I had it posted. Love it!

I DID IT! With a little help from my friend (thanks, Chrissie) and a little change of methods, here is my tagxedo! Hooray!
