Microsoft's Photo Story 3
I learned how to use Microsoft’s Photo Story 3 this week. This program was very easy to use and has endless possibilities. Photo Story 3 is free to download and you can use any picture you have access to. With this software you can create a slide show of pictures complete with animations, music, and/or voice over. In the classroom I can see students using this to tell their own stories. Students could also give how to speeches and insert their own pictures. This could also be a good way for students to learn how to communicate more effectively. Students can also create a scrapbook from a family vacation and share it with others. I can see how Photo Story 3 can have lots of possibilities in the classroom.

Nicole, you have some good ideas there for how students might use Photo Story 3. I think the program is simple enough to learn and use that even young students could work with it productively to create some very interesting stories. It would be fun, I think, for parents to see stories made by the children in the class being played on the projection screen during parent/teacher conference nights or open house nights.
ReplyDeleteNicole,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. Photo story is indeed a easy program to use. It can also be used by students across all levels of learning.
