Other Options for Presentations (and Some Tips on Doing Research)
At a request of a faculty member, I have been researching some video presentation options beyond the standard Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.
I began my research in Google Docs (Google Drive). If you have never done it, you should at least give it a shot. You will like it. In fact, you may like the Research Tool enough to share with your students to use when they are working on their research papers.
So, here are two tools I have looked up.
WeVideo
Online video editing, free for personal accounts with limits of 15 min movies exported in 480p (small, low res movies). Better options, including sharing media to edit, and creating shared projects for a fee.
Moovly
Animated presentations, with interesting effects, and fairly friendly to use. For a free account, you can publish to YouTube and Facebook and Moovly will keep its watermark on the video.
