imovie is a great program that can be a lot of fun too. This a program with so many features that you could spend days or weeks creating a short clip. Once you get the hang of the software, it is easier. Getting started and learning all the different areas can take a long time and even be quite frustrating at times. Once the basics are learned, playing with the different controls and settings are fun. I would suggest to others to make sure they give themselves a great amount of time to plan and try out different setting until they find the perfect one to make their imovie incredible.
I don't think I would have a use for this program unfortunately because of teaching special education. But I do think I could make my own movies of the students or other relevant topics that I can show to my students. Maybe if we had a class field trip and someone filmed part of the trip and what we learned, I could make a review movie that they students could see.
I learned how to do the basics of imovie in another computer class I took at SDSU. However, I learned even more through EDUC 422b. I didn't know about all the different settings that were available to chose from. I didn't use Atomic Learning, but I know of the program and would use it for other programs I don't know how to work.
