Wow! I can't believe I actually got this up on my blog! I created this 2 weeks ago and for some reason it wouldn't upload to the blog editing page. (Please note that it is my daughter and I in the video)
So given my never give up nature or some may say stubborn nature; I thought today I would just go back and see if I could do it one last time before finalising my synopsis and what do you know, it worked. Turns out that I hadn't actually saved it as a proper video... Oh dear :) I had to laugh:) I think that this showed a little of Bloom's Taxonomy's higher order thinking!
Once I had downloaded Jellycam v4 from the internet I found it to be such an easy digital tool to use. As you can see Minnie (who is two and a half years old)had a ball doing it too! Which exemplifies to me how much students would engage with this type of program in the classroom. I can see so much potential with this program. I didn't use it to the best of its abilites due to time, but I know that you can add text, audio, pictures and music files as well. Not only is it easy to use but its affordances are many! I cannot think of any negative attributes of this product at this stage of my novice use.
Plus
- Easy to use
- Can be dowloaded at no cost from the internet
- Can use a laptop with a built in webcam or use a PC with an attached webcam
- Lower and Upper Primary students could use this effectively in any subject
- Fun to use
- You can add it to a website or wiki or blog quite easily(when you know how)
- Safe to use in school contexts
- I would use it in my classrooms
- I really cannot think of any from my short play with the program.
- Can reverse the images you create
