Description:

I liked this website very much because it allows its users to design speaking animated characters in minutes. I think it is very useful for teachers to create animated characters and let them talk to students. Based on my experience, students love cartoons and animated characters and they almost learn by heart whatever those characters say. Teachers should take this opportunity and make the animated character say what they want their students to learn. By doing this, the teachers would help their students learn easily and with a great amount of fun.

 

This feature can be used for teaching grammatical rules. Also it can be used for telling stories, after which the teacher could ask the students to summarize or translate. In addition to this it can be used for giving instructions or directions. Students themselves can use it in recording whatever they want.
