SitePal

SitePal is a new web-based tool that can be used to create an avatar character which can deliver verbal messages to the students online. It is a type of virtual character that can help teachers engage students by adding personality to some of the material in a new and innovative way. Teachers can use SitePal very easily to help animate their presentations, and it can be easily emailed or posted online for student access. I would like to see if there are any other methods that teachers can use online to help thier students become more interested in the material being taught. Although this program was used by a university professor, I would like to know if it could be adapted for younger students. SitePal seems like an interesting tool that could have good results.
