This Weeks Web 2.0 Tool is Dvolver.  This tool is a movie maker that helps anyone make an animated film with captions. I think that this is a great tool, to help students in level 1 Video Broadcasting how to become an effective storyteller. Often in Video Broadcasting courses, we forget that students need to embrace the essence of storytelling so that their ideas will come across effectively and not confuse the viewing audience. Dvolver is known to create creativity widgets. The apps are available via web, mobile, and ipad, which helps people to correlate this tool with modern internet technologies. Even though I would use this technology to teach my students a specific task, that is not the only audience that would benefit from Dvolver. Anyone that is interested in presenting information to a specific group can try this as a different approach to the normal routine. Most people stay safe with a handout or a powerpoint presentation, but it may be a good choice to present in a new way. Moreover another advantage of Dvolver is that it is new. Sometimes we may frown upon that and think about the negative first. However the positives about a new program is that you can become one of the people to present it to the world and help the founders work out the kinks. I believe that this can place you in a situation where you will have to receive credit for any additions that you suggest to make the program more effective. SO why are you waiting hurry up and go to www.dvolver.com
