Animoto can be used in
Business Education as a way for students to discuss themselves and the skills
they have. After doing a unit on entrepreneurs each student can research an
entrepreneur and present their findings as a digital story with facts from their research, with the bigger picture being: By researching successful entrepreneurs what are some characteristics of successful entrepreneur.
