Animation

I was scared by animation when I first saw that this would be a requirement for this class. After watching some of the video's on atomic learning, I just plain wanted to cry. Luckily, we had the option of www.alice.org. This was the most exciting part of animation for me.

Alice.org is a great program that allowed me to feel comfortable with animation. I am looking forward to playing with it a little bit longer and then allowing myself to go a little further to a more complex animation program.

I think that this program allowed me to know that animation isn't as hard as I thought that it would be and it was fun. I worked on this while I was visiting with my inlaws on our snow day, and my mother-in-law loved watching me create my animation because it was fun.

The hard part for me was limiting it to 5-10 seconds, which I still haven't done, because I want to keep adding more. I can definately see my students having fun with this program. The issue is more that I am unsure if we would be able to download the program on our student laptops. This will be a lot of talking to figure this out.

By the end of this, I think that I will be a lover of animation!
