PPT & Screenr for Animated Stories

In grad student mode, I just finished reading some literature on Situated Cognition when my own elementary aged children asked what I was reading.  I quickly switched to mom & teacher mode and the conversation resulted in the development of a short animated story I used to describe the learning theory.  Since that time, my daughter has continued her interest in animation by developing her own story in PowerPoint.  

In the art room, this form of simple animation could be used to teach a number of concepts such as horizon line, perspective, motion, etc.  In the traditional classroom, this tool could easily tie into creative writing projects, short book reports, commercials, etc.

Thank you for such a nice and simple video!! I attended a lecture on this topic for nearly 3 hours and I could not understand a thing, I even got more confused, but watching this video helps me to understand Situated Cognition within minutes!!!
