Digital Storytelling

The iPad is for more than just consumption! Let students show what they know by creating animated videos, e-books, and more! The following apps are very easy to use. You must get the paid version of each, however, to have the ability to save to the iPad.

Tellagami

Lets students create and share quick animated Gami videos. If you get the paid version, videos can be up to 90 seconds long. Students can record their voice or type and choose a synthetic voice. These can be saved to the iPad then shared with the teacher via Google Drive or Dropbox.
