Fine time with PowToon

Below is the link to my first attempt at a Powtoon video. I rather enjoyed the project, though I did find it time consuming. Great thing for short introductory videos or setting a homework or classroom tasks that can be viewed in class or individually by kids. When compared to Powerpoint I felt I could have compiled what I wanted quicker, but I wouldn't have had access to some of the brilliant options that PowToon provides, and the timeline is just a boon for organising your animation. This definitely has its place now in my armour of presentation options, though it may not always be my first choice depending on time available and the task at hand. Also feel the pupils will enjoy using this because of the graphics and music options available on it.

However I do think infographic visuals are very effective in making statistics you want to highlight stand out and draw peoples attention to them. I am going develop more for work and to try starting from scratch.Once I have the templates I need then it will be so much easier to just alter the data and publish. These will be very effective especially for end of year reports to highlight what I would like management to see first, and highlighting things like survey results to staff and students. One thing I will have to do is work out how to get better information and reports out of my Library Management system. I know what ...
