Today was comparisons and analysis day for me. I realize that the ultimate collaborative tool for Spanish projects is Voicethread with its multi-faceted options of still visuals, typed script, audio recording and sketching pencil. Microsoft Photostory is easy to use but has very limited scripting available. Students are able to record information for the visual presentation, a perfect fit for second language learning. I would need to contact the computer technician concerning the free download. MovieMaker is a similar venue with more options for customizing the presentation with a variety of entries, backgrounds and timing, not unlike PowerPoint.
I still need to determine if Pbwiki has advantages over wikispaces. I have used Pbwikis extensively but found that there are some drawbacks, such as a limited space and an inability to do tabbing with the tab key.
My final goal is to organize the Webpage which actually should be a work in progress with constant updates. I would like to create an attractive home page and have already inserted pictures from our student tour of Costa Rica in June. Has anyone worked with the Google site? I could use a bit of tech support! thanks
