Animoto for Education __ [|http://animoto.com/education] __ Create stunning video presentations in a matter of minutes! Animoto creates actual wide-screen videos out of your selected sets of images (from your hard disk or from image-sharing sites) and with your preferred music in a matter of minutes and in a completely automated way (it even has an engine to determine transitions according to musical accompaniment). Animoto videos can be embedded on blogs, wikis, and other web pages or downloaded to your computer. Animoto can also upload your video directly to Youtube and Facebook. Note: This may expire after awhile, but you can just re-sign up with the same username for another go at it.

Animoto Examples: __ Fractions __, __ Magnetism __, __ Free at Last __, __ Tibet and China __, __ Bill of Rights __.
