I have been so appalled by the conservative hissy fit. God forbid that the President of the United States encourage kids to work hard and stay in school. Thanks for this.

Even the trailer on animoto admits that THEY create the movie. It's very difficult for kids to display any creativity when all they are doing is dumping images into a program and maybe adding text. Consider an authentic Digital Storytelling project using Photostory 3 or iMovie which allows kids to manipulate order, duration, transition...and add their voice.

How much more fun this must have been than the traditional "fill out this list of questions and stand up and read the list about your partner" interview we typically see! Thanks for the post.
