Take notes and navigate videos with VideoNot.es

Take notes and navigate videos with VideoNot.es | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
From ltlatnd.wordpress.com - May 28, 2013 9:39 PM

"VideoNot.es is a tool that lets you take notes while watching a video. It’s Google Drive App that works on all browsers and was designed for students and educators. Your notes are saved in Google Drive, so you need a Google account to use VideoNot.es. The tool works on Mac, Windows, and Unix, but it’s not iPad friendly (yet)."

Beth Dichter's insight:

This tool allows you to annotate videos with many browsers and save to your Google Drive. The post explains how to use it and provides a video that gives you a great overview. It also has a list of five ideas on how you might use this in a class, including:

* Creating a video guide for students (or having students create a video guide for upcoming classes)

* The ability to share through Google Drive so you might share notes with students, students might share notes with other students, or students might work collaboratively on projects.

There is also a discussion on how the tool worked in a variety of browsers.

I've only used eduCanon, which is a good tool, but I couldn't get the embed code to work in our Sakai LMS. It only requires a paid version to use short answer questions.

Imagine the possibilities - I can't wait to start playing! What a great way to reinforce language at home!

I've not heard of some of these tools. I'd like to create more videos so I'll have to try these out.
