Thing #6



While there were so many seemingly useful and entertaining tools on Go2Web2.0, I chose to further explore Powtoon. It is a site where anyone can create an animated presentation. I like that the site gives suggestions of how one would use the site, such as to demo a product, to teach a subject, or simply to make a creative animation for personal use. However, I didn’t like that the site neglects a younger audience. Elementary and middle school age children would probably have difficulty navigating and using the site. I definitely believe the site should create a child-friendly section so that younger children could easily use the site to their advantage. That said, Powtoon seems like a nice site for high school and college age individuals to explore and utilize. It also seems like a great site for teachers to create animations useful in the classroom or conference type setting.
