Using Movie Maker
A few disclaimers: 1. First time using Movie Maker 2. Done in little time 3. Difficult time picking clips With all my disclaimers, I still had a great time doing this assignment. I think this could be really useful in the class. The keepvid.com website is wonderful. I have never really understood why counties refuse to give educators access to Youtube. But with keepvid.com I can overcome this rule!
