iMovie in Your Classroom

Looking for that one app that you can integrate seamlessly into your classroom? Give iMovie a try! Yes, it is a bit on the pricey end at $4.99, but the cost shouldn't be an issue when one considers the possibilities with this app.

iMovie by Apple

iMovie was one of the first apps that I downloaded after @chericson handed me my new iPad2 at the beginning of the school year. I wanted to give students the opportunity to create videos quickly and easily. I also downloaded Prep for iMovie. It is a great companion to the iMovie app and will walk you through every feature available within iMovie.

How have we used the iMovie App?

Student created/produced Book Trailers
Student created/produced Newscast
Student performances
Highlight reels of special events in school (Guest speakers, Student projects, Mystery Skypes, All-Stars, Spirit Rally)

One of the best features of iMovie is that you can upload your completed iMovie directly to YouTube, Vimeo or the Camera roll with a few clicks! If you haven't downloaded iMovie for your iPad yet, give it a shot it is so easy to use.
