Immergent Technology 2

I used GoAnimate for this technology trial. It is a certain tool that allows you to make little movies with characters and scenes with sounds. If you wanted to make a visual learning tool, a fun little clip, a slide show, or anything else you could bring yourself to do this is a great tool to use. The program was fairly simple to use minus the fact that you had to trial and error different buttons and their purposes. Plus I had a hard time trying to get music of my own to put on the program. I made a little animation peice that I will try to post on here...it is a bit morbid but I just wanted to try something quick and easy, I posted one of my own pictures and the background and wrote out the dialog. So here goes,

If you are going to try this site, try to use one of your own photos it makes the scene more personalized to you. Also you have to drag the sound onto the scene that you want it although most of the songs drag through more than one clip. The last thing you can flip the people with the two arrow buttons when you click on the people but you cannot flilp the word boxes so don't even try.

I like you emergent technology. I'm considering using that for my third one now, because programs like that interest me. Love the slideshow! I will use your suggestion on using my own photos.

I did this one too. I found it very frustrating because I was trying to do a children's story. Yours is very cute. Good job.
