iNet has done a featured tool article on Flip Video focusing on a project that Dr. Nancy Short did with her Doctor of Nursing Practice Health Policy students. This article gives more information and project ideas abou the Flip Video at an elementary school level. (We in higher ed have a lot to learn from those teachers!)
Ok, this has gotten me motivate to try out my flip video this weekend....the potential use is great,...plan is I am going to try using it to highlight a new piece of technology that we just purchased called the sonic care, I have used this device, which is like an ultrasound machine to a vein on a person that was next to impossible to start.
This is great news. Good luck! I'm interested to find out how you edit the movie files. I've yet to find a good solution - the .mp4 files require file conversion to get into my editing software. If you have iMovie, it's not a problem ... I think.
Let us know how it turns out!
