Comments from those who selected iMovie as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2008

"Another top apple application. I prefer the HD version because I'm used to it. I've not tried out the O8 version because I use a G4 PowerBook and you need an Intel Mac." Adam Sutcliffe
"As part of the iLife suite, iMovie puts students in the creative driver's seat. I taught secondary students video editing 10 years ago and it was difficult for them to learn. I can now teach grade 2 students this much easier tool that creates just as good of a product. We are able to allow students to submit assignments in oral and visual ways instead of text only."
