Piktochart slideshow

Hello again ladies and gentlemen!

Today, I would like to explain you the challenge my group and I faced from our ICT subject. 

I have worked with the same group as in the challenges before. In case you don´t remember, we are: María, Gonzalo, Estrella, Celia and I.

For this new task, we had to make a tutorial and we decided to explain how to use Piktochart in order to help our students to take advantage of it. I´m not going to extend more talking about Piktochart because you can see all its details in the tutorial (or you can also visit my previous post). However, I have to say that we have chosen Piktochart (you can also use others such as Easel.ly, Thinglink or Canva) since we claimed that our children might be able to create their own infographic successfully (as it was said before, some members of our group had already used it and they believed that it could fit our purpose perfectly). As you can read on my prior post, it is a kind of graphic that represents information, data or knowledge quickly and clearly.

Well, to make our infographic we firstly screencasted our computer screen while we were recording orally step by step the process to use Piktochart. María was controlling the mouse and I was narrating what she was doing in Piktochart. In that way, we think that our pupils will be familiarised with it better. To do that, we have used the free tool called aTubeCatcher. We found this program suitable for this task because it is very easy to use and it has all the features we were looking for.  At the end, we shared the video to Youtube in order to make it public. A disadvantage that we founded is that aTubeCatcher didn´t allow us to edit videos. For this reason, we used other program: Movie Maker. With it, we could perfect the video adding some background music, the initial tittle and a final image including our Twitter handles in order to give the viewers the possibility to contact us with their doubts, suggestions and questions.
