30 Hands

Hi everyone !

Maybe you don't understand anything from the title but don't worry, i am going to explain to you.

30 Hands is a digital storytelling app. It means that you can use it from your mobile devices. Let me show you how the app works step by step.

After downloaded the app, you see this page.

by clicking the " + " button at the top of the page you can add your presentation in this page.

When you click the " + " button,

You encounter with this page and you need to write the name of your presentation here. Then you need to click the Add Slides button at the bottom of the blank.

When you click the Add Slides button you can choose any option that you want from here. I choose photos from my camera roll for you.

In a time you can only add 10 pictures. After adding your photos you can record your voice from the red button under the image. You can record your voice seperately for each photo. I choose a random image for you. I just want to show you what you can do by using this app.

You can change the image you choose, delete the audio and record a new one, delete the slide and copy the slide from the button at the top of the right on the page.

 Also you can do some changes by clicking the pen symbol near the recording button. You can add text or mark some part of your photo easily. Also you can re-do the changes.

When you do all things that you need by clicking the share button at the top of the page you can publish your video. In the right picture you see where you can save your video. After saving it to your camera roll you can add your video anywhere you want.

Also you can access the other people's videos from the cloud button. There are different projects that you can watch. You can share yours in there.

What can students do by using this application ?

I am sure i will use this application for my students in the future. They can prepare a short video about their summer holiday when the new year begins. We can watch it in the class and this may be a warm-up activity for the students. Also they can make short cartoons by using some pictures that they created themselves. In the application you can add video to presentation and it is an advantage. They can record a video without sound after they try to guess that what happens in the video. It can be a whole class activity and i think i will be enjoyable. This are my ideas please share yours if you have some. Have you got any suggestion, activity or task that can be done by using this app?

Please leave a comment.

See you later....
