iMovie

Get it here
Cost: 4.99



UDL Guideline 5.1 Use multiple media for communication
iMovie embodies using multiple media for communication and is an excellent tool for instruction in any classroom. iMovie allows students to create HD movies and trailers to tell a story using pictures, video, and music or voice for narrative effects. The guideline states that instructors allow students to compose in multiple media such as film, visual art, video, or etc., and iMovie can do all of this and more.

General Critique:
This app is excellent for teachers that would like their students to exercise creativity while scaffolding their instruction. Students are able to engage actively in a curriculum that is relevant, organized, and geared towards addressing real-world problems or experiences.
