In our 2.5 day phase 1 workshop for teachers, we use:<br /><br /><ol><li><a href="http://audacity.sourceforge.net/">Audacity</a> to create the audio track</li><li><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/PhotoStory/default.mspx">PhotoStory3</a> or <a href="http://www.apple.com/ilife/imovie/">iMovie</a> to combine photos with the audio</li></ol><div><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/moviemaker2.mspx">Windows MovieMaker</a> can also be used, along with the recently released <a href="http://windowslive.com/desktop/moviemaker">Windows MovieMaker Live</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>Audacity will run on basically any computer.
