My Faves of the Week (3)

Here comes the third part of my series. I hope you enjoy all the new favourites.

MybotI love all the Bots, they are the beginning of the Web 3.0. and Morpheus is the best bot I have ever found. It can speak, it can ask and answer questions, it can write back to your comments. It’s a great tool for reading, listening, speaking and writing. Just try it, you’ll love it!

You can delete or edit anything you want to your scrapblog. You add your pictures, text or videos and you can make as many pages as you like.

Zimmertwins is my favourite digital storytelling tool ever! It’s cute and super easy to create cartoons. You have three characters. Eva, Edgard and 13 the Cat. There are many choices for the setting, emotions and actions. You drag and drop them and create your own movie. Please, watch this Zimmertwins video.

vocaroo

bombay-tv-25092 BombayTVis a site where you can make your own subtitled Bollywood films. You choose your short movie and you create the subtitles and send it to others.  You can also record your voice instead of writing the subtitles. I had great fun playing with it, I’m sure you and your students will do too! There is also Classik TV where you can put different movies together with music effects and FuteBolTv where you write subtitles for football matches.
