yes I think that copyrights is a big issue.<br />
I am surprised that Tikatok has taken that approach. What right dothey have to own the material?<br />
<br />
RealeWriter allows the authors to embed their own personal copyrights into the books themselves. I also like the fact that there are so many ways to "share" the books; email, print, and in digital online libraries. You don't have to "pay to play" as it were.<br />
<br />
I have not heard of Storybird, but will check it out!

I have used Photostory with my high school students with considerable success. As for an applicaiton at the elementary and middle levels, I think it will work great there too. My own children (grades 1-7) have all created interesting products with Photostory. All the students need are pictures they can grab from the Internet or take themselves.<br />
<br />
A word of advice, though, is that pictures taken from the net need to be a reasonable size (100+ k) or they are blury when converted to the video.…

A word of advice, though, is that pictures taken from the net need to be a reasonable size (100+ k) or they are blury when converted to the video. Also, any text added overtop will be blurry also.<br />
<br />
An interesting suggestion to work aroun this is to created a slkide in Powerpoint and save it as a jpg which can theyn be imported into Photostory like a regular photo. I have not tried it, but the reasoning is very sound.<br />
<br />
The board i teach in has created a wiki with the information from the PD on Photostory in case you are interested: <a href="http://ocdsbphotostory.wikispaces.com/" target="_blank">http://ocdsbphotostory.wikispaces.com/</a><br />

Jonathan--we did one project using Tikatok and now I've got an issue with them. Their new Terms and Conditions state that they now 'own' all the student work placed on their site. For the average project I really don't think this is an issue--but I have several students who are exceptional poets---I'd hate for them to publish on a site that 'steals' their work. When they are famous, I'd hate for them to have lost the rights to their 'early works'. Joking but serious. We've done some fun online…

Hi Nancy, Sorry for the delayed response<br />
<br />
Tiatok seem interesting, we use realewriter, a free software package designed for kid 6+ to make their own books.<br />
<br />
The books can be emailed, printed in the classroom (or staples for 2.50 much more affordable that 13+$ Tiktok charges) and housed on special online libraries.<br />
<br />
Please come visit our library to see the books made in Ghana…
