BP6_2009102_Web 2.0 Tool 1

GoAnimate.com is a website that I find useful and fun for application in my class. You can use stock images or your own to create a real life or an animated cartoon.

In this case I am going to use it as a lead promo for my schools robotics team. We are a part of the Best Robotics Competition to be held at the University of West Florida in Pensacola, Florida on Saturday, October 17, 2009. One of the requirements is for each team to develop a series of multimedia products to promote our robot and the strategy we will use in an attempt to wind the competition. I created this using GoAnimate.com

Students may choose from a verity of brand names like Star Track, Star Wars, Cartoon Classics, and many more to create their animated media product. These are the types of images that students can identify with. This makes them have a vested interest in learning. Students will be able to use critical thinking and creative skills to create a product that is innovative using web2.0 tools. For example, 95% of the score that teams receive in the robotics competition come from an area not associated with the Physical robot or its performance. The judges’ palaces a lot of weight on the organization and how it integrated the different departments to create the end product. We will use multimedia products to show how our community partners worked with our design team, and marketing to develop a total product.
