Very useful list.

Kim Flintoff's curator insight, May 18, 9:18 PM

Focus on K-12 but many of the suggestions are suitable for learners at any level.  The Teacher apps similarly find a place at many levels.

Занимательная вещь, способная увлечь детей лет 10-13. Сайт переводит вас к приложению для iOS, собственно только в виде приложения всё и работает. Можно создавать короткие анимированные ролики, записывая свой голос или набирая текст. Объем текста ограничен. Говорят персонажи только по-английски. Полезно будет для напоминания о домашней работе, о различных кратких правилах или исключениях. Ученики могут использовать это приложение на уроках или дома, создавая свои мини-ролики. А им это, безусловно, понравится!

Ken Morrison's curator insight, April 5, 8:53 PM

Here is a some pretty good advice on how to make your videos have a better chance of go viral.  I like how it included Seth Godin's quote that "Safe is the new risky".  With that said, it had balanced advice about being 'real'.  I wish it would have used other examples than GoDaddy's "the Kiss"  The Super Bowl exposure throws the statistics out the window in my opinion.
