I am participating in #octshowntell. It is a wonderful way to learn some new technologies that can be used in the classroom. This week I have been using xtranormal.
The guidelines for participating in #octshowntell are on @restructuregirl's blog. I plan to try out a few different tools over the next month. I am going to try storybird next. In November I am speaking at a CRIG forum. I will talk about these storytelling tools in front of a bunch of liaison librarians. Thanks Ruth and others for the inspiration.
Robot A: What is learning leadership?
Robot B: Roberts and Black say it is where managers show a genuine commitment to staff and their personal development
Robot A: So it's about respect, recognising potential, mentoring and encouraging people
Robot A: Wow!
A colleague of mine spoke highly of Xtranormal for creating 3D videos. It is very simple. Skills required:
It is free to use. However if you want to use some of the premium features you will need to pay. Furthermore the desktop version is not available for MAC.
Here is my first video. As you probably know by now I adore robots and haiku. So I combined them both in this test.

I believe it is a great tool for creating teaching and learning resources but also to get your students to create videos. How do you think you could use it in a information literacy context?
