Animoto is a dynamic video creator which takes still pictures and video clips and make professional quality videos. You can use it as a project based learning tool in much the same manner as Photo Story or Pixie.

 

Animoto for Education – Animoto allows teachers to have full access to their features which would otherwise cost money. Registering for Animoto as a teacher also gives you a link to register student accounts. All student accounts require and email. Elementary teachers will want to use Google to create “dummy” email accounts and then create the accounts for each student. Click here for an explanation on how to set this up.

 

 When the registration is complete, you will be able to access Animoto as a free user, but not register students until you get a confirmation email of an “All Access” account. It may take several days for the confirmation to arrive.

NOTE: When the confirmation email arrives, it will contain a special code to use when registering. You will need to use this special registration code when creating student accounts or they will not have an “All Access” account.
