e Today I tried out a new web video editor, Mozilla’s PopcornMaker . This tool allows you to add content from the web to an online video. The content you can add consists of text, links, maps, and also live feeds. For example, I used Buck Institute for Education’s (BIE) web video, “Project-Based Learning: Explained,”  as the media source to create my remixed video. I added links to additional PBL information, a Wikipedia passage on PBL, Twitter feeds of #PBL and #PBLchat, as well as an image that explained the important components of PBL.   This tool would be great for teachers who have blended or flipped classrooms. For example, if a science teacher assigns her students to watch a web video on oceans, but feels the video does not provide enough information, she can use PopcornMaker to add additional images, maps, Twitter feeds, and links on the topic.  ( Source: http://popcorn.webmadecontent.org/ )
