Animoto is one of the easiest ways to create spectacular videos online! It allows you to use your own pictures, clips and music to create a custom video in minutes!
Animoto is flexible and with lots of options available it allows you to express yourself by tailoring your video exactly the way you like it!
Animoto would serve as a great tool for students who have trouble expressing themselves in writing. By using Animoto students could convey their messages through a video rather than text. Additionally, Animoto includes scaffolds which serve as visual cues. Students who are visual learners will find Animoto especially interesting. It allows students a way to express themselves and engage in their work at the same time.
Examples of how Animoto could be used in the classroom:
Students could create a video to inform their peers about the precautions and issues of cyberbullying.
Students could act out a scene from a book that they have read in Language Arts.
Animoto is licensed for users 13 years old and up. Provisions can be granted for schools to create accounts for users under the age of 13 so long that they comply with the terms of the agreement and that no personal information is released.
