Visual Reviews
I like the way animoto delivers vocabulary and phrases in a kind of subliminal message. My Higher class started making these earlier on, but access to the internet was a bit slow so it took a while to get together the information they needed (images from the films and some phrases from reviews). I brought them home to finish - if I were to do this again (and I definitely would) I would put the phrases onto separate slides. We started the period by looking at wordle images of the films (l’auberge espagnole and les poupées russes) which I’d created from reviews, then looked at the reviews and finally started to put together this slideshow. What I like about animoto is if you’re not sure about your first effort you can remix it - so I’m not sure which of these I prefer, but what I like is that they are visual and creative without much effort on the part of this unartistic teacher!
