Practical Ed Tech Tip of the Week – Create Interactive Videos to Review the Year

ByRichard Byrne

This is the time of year that we see lots of retrospective videos. Last week YouTube released their year-in-review video and before too long we’ll see plenty of more year-in-review videos from news outlets. Your students can create their own year-in-review videos by using Wideo. Wideo enables anyone to create animated videos and or slideshow style videos. If you choose to use the slideshow style, you can insert hyperlinks into each slide to make the video interactive. In the video embedded below I demonstrate how to create an interactive video on Wideo.

By popular request, I am offering a new section of my online course Getting Going With GAFE. The course carries a graduate credit option. The first meeting is on January 5th.
