How It Works

Create short, powerful video stories using Binumi’s ready-to-go templates and multimedia library. Begin by selecting from the large library of templates to watch a preview, then select one to personalize and create your video. Templates offer a wide range of options, divided into categories, or use the search feature to find a specific topic. Use Binumi’s drag and drop library to add videos and images to your film or upload images from your device. Other options include adding title cards and adding voice-overs to your video. When finished, publish videos to your library to share by email, Google Classroom, YouTube, or social media. Additional options allow you to adjust settings to private or public or access the embed code to embed on web pages. Free Storyteller accounts provide you with access to the starter library of templates and multimedia, with limits on storage for uploads and personal files.

In the Classroom

Binumi is a great choice for educators and students to create video stories easily and quickly without prior video-creation knowledge. Use the templates to provide engaging introductions to new lessons. For example, use the 15-second template to focus on the main idea to introduce and feature highlights of an upcoming novel. Share Binumi with students to use as part of any multimedia project to show what they know through video and images. Include their Binumi video within Sway, reviewed here, or Adobe Spark for Education, reviewed here, as part of a more comprehensive project that includes student writing, links to references, and more. Ask students to include a short video as part of their portfolio or blogging activities.

-11 0 favorites 0 promising practices https://images.nasa.gov/ Last updated: Fri, 08/27/2021 - 11:50 share

How It Works

Do you need "out of this world" images? NASA provides images, video, and audio for non-commercial use, free. Browse through the newest uploads or most popular items to get an idea of included items. If looking for specific topics, use the search bar to locate material by keyword, then use the filters to narrow down by the type of content desired. All items include a link to download to your computer along with links to share by URL or with social media. Be sure to check out the Media Usage guidelines for complete details on the usage of the site’s content.

In the Classroom

Include this site with your other bookmarks for images and space-related content. Use Symbaloo, reviewed here, to share all of your space bookmarks in one easy to find location. This NASA site is an excellent resource for finding images to use with creative writing prompts; display an interesting image from the site for student storytelling lessons. Exchange paper and pen writing journals, and share their writing using Edublog, reviewed here. As students learn about space topics, ask them to find an image on this site then use ThingLink, reviewed here, to enhance their learning by annotating the image with text, video, and web links to additional information. Extend student learning by having students create a video presentation about space using a video creation tool like Typito, reviewed here. Typito includes templates and additional tools to create professional-looking videos or use your own images and video.

How It Works

Convert, edit, and save video files with Freemake Video Converter. The video converter supports over 300 file input formats including video, audio, and image files. Use templates provided to turn photos or images into slideshows with a chosen soundtrack. Other features include the ability to clip and rotate video, upload to YouTube, and convert files to burn and save on Blu-ray or DVD. Be sure to watch the video on the site with directions on how to use this tool. It is a YouTube video so you may need to watch it somewhere other than at school.

In the Classroom

Share with students for use with any multimedia or presentation project. Use this tool to backup videos on your YouTube channel. Bookmark and save this video converter for use as an alternative to Online-Convert, reviewed here. This tool and Online-Convert are both used to download and save videos at home that you wish to show to students, especially if they are blocked at school. If you want to use the video at school, you may need to save the conversion to a USB stick, if a CD drive isn’t available.

Google Maps Treks

— Google

-11 0 favorites 0 promising practices https://www.google.com/maps/about/behind-the-scenes/streetview/treks/ Last updated: Fri, 08/27/2021 - 11:50 share

How It Works

Never leave your easy chair as you journey beyond the road to faraway places using Google Maps Treks! Choose Gombe National Park, Pyramids of Giza, Angkor Wat, Colorado River, or the polar bears at Churchill. Tour Taj Mahal, Venice, Galapagos Islands, Eiffel Tower, Mt. Fuji, Everest, Great Barrier Reef, the Amazon Basin, and more. Click on the option and then click the open in Maps or Views button. On maps with multiple placemarks, click the placemark to view information about the location, and then click the title to go to the map. Choose from a variety of images taken at various locations found along the bottom. Some images are photospheres and can be manipulated using the sphere icon along the bottom right. Use the arrows in the sphere to rotate the image, giving a panoramic view of the location as you click. Use the familiar Google map tools to zoom in and out. Some Treks offer short videos that are hosted on YouTube. If your district blocks YouTube, the videos may not be viewable.

In the Classroom

If you teach geography, this one is a must. It is also helpful for showing students WHERE a story or news event takes place. View these different places whether your content includes history, geography, literature, science, languages, and more. View places discussed in class, or in stories. Look at different cultural areas or environments in the world. Choose a trek as an inspiration for further research about the area, the inspiration for a student created poem or short story, artistic work, and many other projects. Encourage student groups to choose one of the places on this site to present to the class, highlighting various economic, recreational, historical, and cultural factors at each place. You may want students to use a tool such as Knoema, reviewed here, or Data - The World Bank, reviewed here, to make sure students get accurate information. Use this as a class "Where I visited in Google Maps" project! As students ask questions about the various places, encourage discovery in finding the answers together.
