Animoto Useful to Produce Authentic Products

With Animoto, you (or your students) can make a video slideshow with one of nearly 50 styles. Then you can add captions and titles to your photos and video clips. Be sure to check out the "educator" membership on the Animoto website. 

Here's a great example of an animoto that was used as part of a PBL/service-learning project. The project was done by Katie Benton and her colleagues at Barrington Elementary (Upper Arlington, OH) as part of a "Habitat" study. Katie created this animoto as part of the "preparation" phase of the project.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Thoroughly enjoyable. Passion of presenters drove the 3R’s (Rigor, Relevance, Relationships) through activities that help synthesize my learning of PBL and SLP [project-based learning and service-learning projects]. The time spent developing our understanding and creating an action plan for implementation was most helpful." -- Course participant
