Get to Know Animoto |

How many of your emails and handouts have gone unread and unremembered? Probably more than you’d like to admit.
Well, I’ve got a new resource for you that will make every message memorable. Say hello to animoto.
Take a look at this animoto slideshow video I made for my teachers. I wanted to let my teachers know about using Library of Congress online for primary documents.
That video only took me 20 minutes to create, start to finish! Believe it. In the same times it would take to write an email, you could create a wow-worthy multimedia presentation with your same message.
Using animoto, you can create a message that you audience will remember and maybe even pass along. This online tool will become a staple for you in your presentations, review and reflections, classroom projects and also as an option for your student presentations.
