Hi everybody.
This week’s Project is to
introduce a digital storytelling app . The app I will tell is Tellagami.
Tellagami is a free app and it is available for IOS and Android users.This
application is easy to use.
When you download this app and you open it, an introduction gami video is shown to users.
Then you start to customise your character.There are options for users.
For instance, After selecting the character’s sex ,you can change the
character’s hair, eye colour, dressings, head, skin tone, shoes.
You can alter your own
chataracter’s emotions. You can make the character confused as I display in
the screen shot.
After completing all of these
steps, You can choose and change the background by simply clicking on them.
In this step you can record
your voice in limited timing. You can add text.
If you would like, you can
share it or you can only save it.
I consider this app is easy to
applicable. Learners can easily use it. Learners can construct their own
character by individually or they can work with a group. They record their
voices and they can tell the stories made up by themselves. They can share
it. It is suitable for especially young
learners. It lets students make
animation quickly without struggling to understand or use it. It can enhance
learners creativity and also it edutains. In other words it can provide them
learning when entertaining. It can increase
the learning especially for visual and auditory learners. Language is
alive but with this app and like other apps like this language learning can
become more meaningful. Since sometimes language may occur a bit abstract and
it needs to be more concrete. With
Tellagami, meaningful learning may come true. On the other hand, I think it has
some drawbacks like movement feature. If developed, it will be more useful and
enjoyable for learners. These are just my opinions. That’s all. Thanks for
reading. I hope I could have given enough information for you. If you want to add your ideas please share. See you. :)
