As a teacher, one problem you face again and again is how to get your students engaged with a topic. Apple's iLife software suite presents the perfect solution. With simple yet powerful tools for making movies, working with photographs, producing DVDs, and making music, the creative iLife applications can enhance just about any educational experience. This special edition of Jim Heid's bestselling interactive guide to Apple's iLife includes practical information especially for K-12 teachers. Filmmaker and educational consultant Nikos Theodosakis introduces the book with practical guidance to help you integrate digital media into your classroom routine. Jim's video tutorials, augmented by beautiful four-color illustrations, give you the technical know-how you need to work with the software. Finally, Nikos selected and adapted ten of the award-winning lesson plans from Apple Computer's iLife Educator contest and provided them at the end of the book (also available for download from the book's companion Web site), so you and your students in virtually any subject area or age level can begin using the creative iLife applications classroom right away.
