Gallery+Walks



Gallery Walks are a great way to generate student discussion. PhotoStory is an ideal tool where each student can contribute by creating one picture to the final compilation. Adding narration is a great way to enhance their slides. Take it up a notch by having students each create their own story for a series of "shows" in the Gallery Walk. Get ready to learn how to make impressive, polished movies with PhotoStory.
