Educational Value of Animoto

Animoto is a great tool for educators and students to create short videos that include pictures and music. The short video could be created and used by the educator to introduce a new topic that he/she will be teaching or it could be used as an informal assessment tool in which student’s would be required to create a short video at the culmination of a unit, lesson or chapter. Animoto is an engaging free online tool that  educator’s must introduce in the classroom and to their students. The website is easy to learn and use. The video’s are short yet satisfying, in which they can easily explain a topic in less than 30 seconds while engaging students by using visually stimulating photos and audio. Take a look at my Animoto that I created using the topic The Five Senses!
