Marvin as a tutorial tool

At the bottom of this blog is an example of how the Marvin programme can be used. The programme was developed in the Northern Territory and has been backed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, making it free to schools. TIS has a network licence and it will be available for all teachers to try in the classroom. I think the programme has real potential as a tool for students building tutorials and instructional texts. The avatar feature is fantastic in instances where there are issues around student images being recorded. The example at the bottom of this page took about 5 minutes to put together. The programme is very user friendly, I highly recommend you give it a go!
