Xtranormal.com

This is a great website for students to use to create conversations or to present information. Students create a video using the scenes and actors provided. They provide the dialogue and can even choose camera direction, actors facial expression, and their movements. Unfortunately, there is some cost. A teacher pays ten dollars a month and the students 50 cents. This provides them with lots of options and the ability to publish there finished product to youtube, facebook or twitter.
Think of the implicatons:




  • Students could create a discussion between a genetic counselor and a couple.


  • An interview with a famous scientist


  • A debate about stem cell research


  • A reporter reporting on water pollution.


Check at the website to view a movie I did for a graduate class. I did it in an hour.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am55yW7RSD0
