Yodio - Add voice to photos - 0 views

  •  
    Assignment, Module 3 - Yodio.com is a free, web-based recording service where users can record from any microphone or cell phone to create a visual and audio podcast experience.  Users can synchronize their voice commentaries with photos to create media presentations and responses.  They can be shared, streamed through the Internet, or embedded in other websites and blogs.  In essence, it is an audio postcard.  Another advantage the site offers for classroom presentations is it allows you to toggle back and forth to full-screen mode.  One interesting note:  the name, Yodio, is derived from YOur auDIO.

VUVOX - slideshows, photo, video and music sharing, Myspace codes - 1 views

  •  
    What it does: It allows you to create a collage of pictures that scroll horizontally across the screen. It allows for links and embedded videos as well. Why this one: One version of it is free. It is simple and easy to use. It maintains interest as the photos scroll across the screen and seems to eliminate many of the possible extraneous material that is sometimes easily added to a multimedia presentation. The rate and flow of the scrolling is user controlled. Learning benefits: Text can be added, but this application is an excellent example of how "A picture paints a thousand words," and how a learner can generate their own interpretation and message from the presentation.

    Showbeyond http://www.showbeyond.com Showbeyond is a resource that I came across while I was teaching my journalism students how to create a photo essay. Even though I just randomly stumbled across this resource it has proven to be a wonderfully simple to use slide cast program. Slide casts are an online multimedia format that combines and synchronizes slideshows with podcasts. I have found this format perfect for online story telling as well as online presentations. I think Showbeyond is a resource more fit for middle and high school students and educators. Showbeyond allows students and educators to design and create multimedia presentations easily and quickly. Showbeyond is a resource that lets you select and manipulate photos and text to create a visual presentation which you can add podcasts, music, and videos to. I chose Showbeyond because I don't think you can find a more accessible multimedia to create simple presentations on. I say simple because Showbeyond is not capable of some the more advanced features such as animation and timed slides like PowerPoint and MovieMaker are capable of. However, I do use Showbeyond in my classroom often and my students really enjoy the products that they can create.

    Virtual Dub http://www.virtualdub.org/ Virtual Dub is a free downloadable online movie editing software for PC users that allows the manipulation and revision of avi files, jpeg and bmp files, and mp3 files. It is a website that allows you to quickly and easily design short videos to present to students or to create personal slideshows set to music. Either way Virtual Dub provides an opportunity to educators to take presentations past PowerPoint and to the next level of engaging video presentations. For the students of today we know and understand the importance of presenting our learners with the fast paced and visually stimulating graphics that they have been raised with. I chose to incorporate Virtual Dub because it is a free resource that is very effective that produces high quality presentations with an easy to use format. Another feature of Virtual Dub that I really appreciate and use frequently is the batch operation feature. This feature allows me to upload many photos or files all at once. Virtual Dub also allows users to edit their photos with advanced filters such as blur reduction, sharpen, emboss and many other features giving the final presentation a more clean cut and professional look.

Picturing Modern America - 0 views

  •  
    Picturing Modern America 1880-1920 is designed for those teachers focusing on American history from 1880-1920.  The site is very much focused on learner-centered learning.  Students must investigate history by drawing from clues in historical photos.  I will utilize this site in my presentation wiki focused on infusing mulitmedia in a history classroom.

VoiceThread - 3 views

  •  
    This website utilizes pictures, video or any type of work that can be uploaded to the site by a teacher or a student. Participants are able to provide written, voice or video comments about the posted artifact. This is a collaborative, student-centered site that promotes cognitive processing of information. This artifact represents what Mayer (2009) calls dual coding, including both textual and visual components. The students have the opportunity to respond in a variety of ways to the instruction which promotes higher level thinking skills. I plan to create my own Voice Thread using our own student writing.

    VoiceThread incorporates media from a variety of sources and allows the layering of sound and comments from many sources. The application support completely new types of sharing and presentation. We can create multimedia albums in which can insert documents in PDF, Excel, PPT and MCS. VoiceThread is an excellent resource for presentations.
  •  
    Collaborative place for images, video and documents. The doodle feature is an interesting twist.This will be utilized by my participants in giving feedback and sharing of videos.
  •  
    Wow! I encourage you to watch the tutorial video for voicethread. You and others can collaborate on an artifact, draw on it, provide commentary on it (the most accented function).
  •  
    multimedia collaboration software no installation required
  •  
    VoiceThread is a tool for digital storytelling which uses photos and audio and text to share.  The site is centered around the technology, but its use is learner centered. 
  •  
    Voicethread is excellent for generative learning. It presents information through the visual and auditory channels. Its unique ability to integrate voice comments and feedback inline during the presentation sets it apart from others as away to integrate the learning of many students. This ability to collaborate not only includes their website and an iOS application, but is also available through the phone. Each presentation can receive a phone number so students can leave comments in that way if their computer systems do not allow them to otherwise.
  •  
    Voice thread can be used for presentations as well as students work. You can upload media and have your participants leave comments.
  •  
    VoiceThread allows its users to create a slideshow presentation using images and/or video components. Once the presentation has been designed and ready to share, it can be embedded onto any webpage. This allows for easier access to its users and viewers. This particular online presentation program was much easier to use and access than many of the other programs that I viewed. It also allows for collaboration among classmates and instructors, by permitting others to comment on each photo through text, audio, or video.
  •  
    VoiceThread is a collaborative tool that allows users to upload media and engage in dialogue. Users can provide commentary on the media that is presented through typing or voice recording. An additional feature of VoiceThread allows users to draw with a pen as a way of highlighting while they are talking. The administrator has options to block participants' responses from each other before revealing all the comments for viewing. This website supports essential and generative learning because participants are given the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to transfer knowledge gained.

ToonDoo - World's fastest way to create cartoons! - 3 views

  •  
    What it does: Allows teachers to create a simple cartoon strip. Why this one: It is free and easy to use. It provides templates from which to choose. I see a great benefit in that teachers can quickly create a dozen of these messages in the same time it would take to create just 1 video message. Therefore, time and practicality are key benefits. As mentioned above, I have tried to maintain the need for simplicity and efficient use of time. Creating multimedia presentations are but a small fraction of the enormous number of jobs a teacher must complete. Learning benefits: I see this more for generative learning. Role playing, "what if" scenarios, and thought-provoking situations can be presented by the teachers.

    ToonDoo is a website that allows students to create cartoons, books, characters, or doodles about any topic. It would be a great way for students to present information they have learned or demonstrate comprehension in a non-traditional way. 
  •  
    This is a tool which can be used for digital storytelling.  It is technology centered although its use is learner centered.  I incorporated the use of this tool with students from another school to retell parables with a 21st century twist in the middle school curriculum of the private Christian school at which I taught.
  •  
    This is a free site that allow you to create cartoons using the available images, images you create, or your own photos. Just drag and drop!

    Animoto is the simplest of all free presentation tools! It also doesn't profess to allow the user to do everything. It allows educators to create an unlimited number of videos from still images, including a choice of background music.
  •  
    Description: Video slideshow creator using words and audio and graphics Why better: Slideshows can align with Mayer's(2001) principles. Downloadable and embeddable.
  •  
    Animoto is designed to allow its users to upload captions and images in order to create vivid videos set to music. Animoto videos are what I like to consider, "smart videos." They analyze the video, feel the music, and then customize the video, allowing users to share and publish their unique video to any webpage. Animoto videos are a creative and fun way to introduce a topic of study, introduce vocabulary, or to teach a short lesson with. Animoto is free to use after making an account, but unless a membership is purchased with Animoto, the videos that you make will be no longer than 30 seconds in length. I have used it with my presentations, after purchasing a membership, and participants of the presentation were engaged and excited about what they saw and learned. It makes learning more interesting. Animoto is better than most other video production sites as it offers its users a variety of professionally looking templates to add your photos, text, and audio to, whereas other sites are limited on their templates to basic features.

Assessment - Mixbook - 0 views

  •  
    Creating an online photobook is an excellent way to authentically assess your students. Mixbook is a free online resource that can be used to create this photobook. Students can import photos, decorate that pages, choose their own layout, and even order a hard copy. Parents and administrators love to see what the students are doing, and teachers can use the books to visually see what was accomplished and learned. I like Mixbook because it is easy to use, free, and creates great looking photobook "digital electronic portfolios".
