There were a ton of web 2.0 tools that I looked at and thought could be very useful, but my favorite tool was probably the powtoon tool. PowToon is an online tool that can be used to create animated PowerPoints. It can also be used for any type of PowerPoints, but I found it helpful for the animation portion of a powerpoint.
The biggest reason I chose to blog about this web 2.0 tool is because my major is K-6. I really prefer to teach younger age students (1-3) and I know keeping their attention is crucial. I feel like using this tool provides enough features to convey a lesson as well as keep the students entertained. Using graphics and fun exchanges between educational information allows the students less time to become bored or distracted from their learning.
Just some thoughts,
Mr. Morris
