Easy to use and gets the job done

I feel as though iMovie can be used for so many things. Whether you're using it to teach a class about video editing or allowing students to make their projects more personal and fun, I feel as though it has endless possibilities. It can be a little hard to navigate at first (how to add videos or layer them) but it's very easy to get to understanding how it works. I feel as though iMovie helps to make learning fun and would like to see it used more in classrooms!

Imovie is a fantastic, free video maker program. It is incredibly easy to use and enables students to express themselves in projects. I have provided many examples of projects above.

My overall opinion on this app is, it’s one of the best movie making apps out there. It's a vital resource that teachers can utilize in the classroom in order to promote and develop the 4C's that are essential skills for students to succeed. iMovie helped students strengthen skills with Communication. Not only by talking in the group but also by being able to create a video that communicates a clear message to the public. Collaboration was at an all-time high because ideas were mixed and fused together by groups, scenes had to be planned out and groups had be sure all details were in order before shooting videos. There is lots of creativity when using this app. having that ability to go beyond the classroom opened up the many doors to be creative as possible. Lastly, critical thinking had the leading role throughout the project. There were plenty of details and problems that had to be solved. Some groups were faced with students being absent and not being able to shoot videos. Some days students were limited to where they could go in the school and film, so scenes had to be changed around. But overall the students were able to work thru the adversity and complete the PSA commercial.
