In 6th grade Social Studies, the students researched and created a presentation movie using Microsoft Photostory 3. They collected information about their topic; found pictures; edited their pictures in Picnik; imported pictures, text, and their voice narration; added transitions, effects and music; and then showed their videos in class. Students evaluated not only their own final product, but their peers', as well, in order to reflect and grow for their next presentation.
