Thing 20


This video got my attention because the creator really used technology to his advantage.  This video contained humor but was also educational.  I thought the teacher really captured his audience's attention.  I enjoyed it and thought it was neat how he was able to edit the video of the teacher and made it look real.  I thought it was amazing how he was able to step outside of the video browser. I have never seen editing like that before. A video like this implemented into your lesson will really wow your students.  It is something that they don't see everyday and I believe any students of any age will stay focused when they watch it.   

The below link is to a cite that I explored to that I believe will be a neat tool to use in the classroom.  It is called PowToon.

This tool turns your average PowerPoint presentations into fun and entertaining animated presentations. This will surely catch the attention of any viewer. It allows you to create videos, presentations, slideshows, and small video clips.  Any student would rather watch an animated presentation versus a PowerPoint.  This tool is fun to use and I will definitely be using this in my future classroom.
