Zaption takes flipping the classroom to the next level. You can create banks of videos which you share and that allows others to benefit. In return you can download and edit the free videos which are available. This is content creation and inspiration at its best because it allows you to become part of a group of online collaborators who add to each other. In the end , we shall become more video reliant since the world is becoming more and more visual and video oriented. It makes learning real and more authentic for students who have grown up in a media world. The site also has done the right thing by allowing free participation as well as the option for a paid version and it highlights clearly the differences. My preferences for video editing are Pinnacle Studio, iMovie and Windows Movie Maker. You will need some video editing skills to make the most of this site but just using the free videos to start with and then moving into making your own is probably how to start to familiarise yourself with this way of doing things. Work out a stepped plan of how to get there. Take a look at the gallery in the top toolbar and you’ll get an idea of how much is already available.
