"Is is possible to embed a Voki in Glogster? Well…not easily. You certainly can't just put an embed code and it works. Hopefully, Glogster will start allowing embedded content besides movies. Anyway, if you are willing to go through a few steps you can do it. Below is a step by step tutorial on this process. Only free, web-based solutions were used and nothing is uploaded to Youtube since it is blocked in many school districts."

50+ Ways to Tell the Dominoe Story Just to prove it can be done, I am going to try and tell the same story as an example for every tool in the list. Previously, I created a short story originally as a video assembled from still images and audio that was submitted for a 60 Second Story contest Every story is based on my storyboard and assembled images on flickr and in Picasa -- a number of tools allow you to directly import media from these storage sites. Below are examples of the same story (over and over again!) I was able to create in the 50+ tools, with both linked versions (on the tool's web site) and embedded versions, using the code provided to embed a media player into this web site. One of the most interesting discoveries was that about 2/3 of these tools provided the ability to embed the media in other web sites.

"Each one of the "gems" listed here was recommended by an educator or someone who works in this field (or me!). They were selected as ones that are perhaps not as widely known as the Big Rocks like Flickr, del.icio.us, etc. Your goal here is not to analyze them all, just find one quickly that piques your interest.

Another section, even more things to try!!

"Shidonni is a site where students can draw their favorite animal with a world to live in it and see the animal spring to life. Kids take care of their animals by feeding, petting or sending them to sleep. The animal eats the food that kids have drawn for it. They can choose if they want their pet to walk or fly, and they can name it. Kids can draw a background and change it whenever they want. They can play games with their virtual animals or send them to their friends to play with their animals. You can watch this introduction video. This site is great for kindergarten students but I'm sure primary kids will love and enjoy this site too!! This can be a great tool for digital storytelling or describing animals or daily routines."

will try this and let you know.
