Using pictures and media in VUVOX

Vuvox is another free Web 2.0 app that gives you yet another cool way to display pics and videos in an interactive and animated montage. Navigating your way through the application is fairly straightforward and there is the option of using wizards which automatically arrange photos and media for you.

For students, this would be a spin on creating an informational poster on a particular subject or concept but instead of creating, arranging and displaying their information on a piece of Bristol board, they are now creating it on a scrolling and interactive medium.

Check it out - very slick.
