tool to help assess students understanding of concepts and their engagement with materials. Teachers can project questions onto their screens while students answer them in real time. Very simple to use for students. They just need to rotate a card to show their answer and then the teacher use a smartphone to take pictures and scan the answers. The cards can be bought online or downloaded then printed. The cards are designed in such a way that each side of the card represents an answer e.g. first side represent (A) second side represent (B)

Advantages.

Save time, arguably, simple to use and simple set up                   only needs one electronic smart device to take pictures and scan                                          Low maintenance.

Disadvantages
the restriction on teachers to use multiple choice question to formally assess their students( limited question types )               if a student loses their plicker cards, they would not be able to participate equally in the activity
need sufficient lighting to enable the camera to pickup images

Animoto is a very good tool to use but the way you communicated it was not good. It is really too much as your peers are saying. If you could not summarise, then you should have shared the link instead of taking everything that you came across

Animoto
Digital learners prefer processing pictures, sounds, colours and video as opposed to working with
static text. Animoto is a Web 2.0 tool which facilitates this. It can be used to improve subject
vocabulary, understanding of complex topics, link concepts and develop greater understanding for
students. Animoto allows users to create visually appealing and memorable videos which can be
created in minutes once the subject material is available.
Students can search Google Images to match words and concepts that they need for their
video. This process challenges students' understanding of key words and concepts, as finding the
right picture to represent a word requires understanding and higher order thinking. Completed
videos can be a good way to start a class, to stimulate interest or to recap or revise a topic.
Not everyone has the time, patience or money to invest in high end, or even medium priced videos.

If you are pressed for time and absolute control of your final product is not a requirement, Animoto may be just what you are looking for.

If you have a client that “needs it yesterday”, Animoto may be for you. If you are back-logged with clients waiting for their product, Animoto may be your site in shining armor.

Wedding photographers are able to take advantage of the beautiful edits Animoto so easily provides. I can’t begin to tell you what technology has gone in to making Animoto work. And the best thing about it is, you don’t need to know anything about video editing technology to make Animoto work for your needs. Put your fears aside and let Animoto handle the job.

While an intimate knowledge of technology is not a requirement to use Animoto, a clear understanding of what you want your video to convey is.

Animoto works well when you know what you want. For all practical purposes, you have three considerations when using Animoto; how long does your video need to be? What music will best convey the mood of your piece? And, what photos or  be used?

Animoto takes a lot of the typically detailed decisions away from you. You no longer have to debate over which edit style you want to use. Gone are the days when you worked for hours on end to sync your music with your clips. Animoto does this for you, making the final product one that can be done in hours (or even minutes) rather than through weeks or months of tedious editing

Simply upload the photos or videos you want to use in the order you want them to appear, choose your music (Animoto provides royalty free music choices so you don’t have to worry about any legal issues) and hit the “create video” button. Then grab a cup of coffee and come back to see your production.

If you are not pleased with the end result, no worries, simply hit the “1 click remix” button and grab another cup of coffee. You can use the “1 click remix” as often as you like until you have something that makes you and your client happy.

Animoto also provides you with the ability to add text-only frames in your video. Sometimes a picture cannot convey what a few words can to help you tell your story.

Animoto Review: THE BAD

While all of the good is good with Animoto, it does have drawbacks.

Don’t expect James Cameron to use Animoto to produce his next movie. All of the instant and easy aspects help beginners and professionals alike to make great, professional looking videos. But as a producer you lose the ability to control the details of your video.

You cannot make subtle changes to one frame.

You cannot control the style of edits Animoto provides. (You do have some control over this based on your music choice.)

With Animoto you lose the ability to edit just one section of the video without affecting the entire video.

Just like TV dinners, you can’t get a master chef taste with the food you bought in a cardboard box. But you do get to eat now. And you will eat well.

Advantages of Edmodo is that is has many features that allows students to access class information quickly. Teachers are able to respond online through the site not only to the students but also to their parents. A disadvantage is that this is still a social networking website. Teachers, students and parents may use the site incorrectly. Another disadvantage is access to the internet. If this site is going to be used for assignments or announcements, al students must have access to the site at home. Parents also need to know how to use the website..Some of the disadvantages are the plain templates that are offered on this site. Another disadvantage is the large number of extensions. For experienced web designers, Joomla may not have the necessary tools. It is  great tool for beginners but not for the experienced.

Consider the age and type of immersive experience  you introduce to learners. Its generally accepted that headsets should not be used with children  younger than seven years old.
It is fun ,rather than a SRS educational reason for doing so the teacher  having to manage a class who have disappeared inside their headsets
