Strengths Weaknesses Opportunities Threats
 * SWOT Analysis**
 * Really easy to use: When I first opened it I thought I would need to pick another source, but literally after a minute I figured it out and it was really cool!
 * You don’t need to sign up or anything to make a multimedia project
 * You can put the site in different languages for better accommodations.
 * Projects can be saved and shared with a link.
 * You can create teaching activities, find teaching activities, and search through examples. It is a multi-purpose tool
 * Create many tools: Memes, poster, book covers, etc, and there are templates for each with easy steps!
 * You have to log in to save your projects
 * Could be overwhelming for new students as there are a lot of opportunities (definitely introduce explicitly for the first few times using as a class)
 * Students can add to videos on YouTube or other url presentations. They could add onto another students animoto or youtube video.
 * Can add words, pictures, audio, a roadmap from google, or website images to current videos.
 * Helps students make a multimedia project their own.
 * Create lessons on the site.
 * They provide Wikipedia as a source to add information, and I try to discourage my students from using this. It might also encourage them to manipulate, or add to videos with bullying comments. Introducing them to this tool may open a can of worms when they are not at school.


 * Ideas for the Classroom**


 * I play science songs form youtube for my students and I could see them using those videos and creating something new with it, adding words, concepts, or even just comments via the video. Then I could play the new version with all their comments and edits for them.
