Description: Blabberize makes it possible "to speak" through a picture, animating pictures by using recorded or uploaded audio. Users can upload pictures of people, animals, or objects, and designate any area as the "mouth". This "mouth" then moves and acts like a real mouth while the recorded voice is played, as if the person, creating a talking effect. Blabberize is free and does not require signing up for use.
Evaluation: Blabberize is a simple and fun-to-use tool. It can be used for various purposes such as creating educational content, storytelling, entertainment, or adding humour to presentations. For teachers, getting students to use Blabberize can encourage them to speak since it may be less threatening and more fun to do so through an image. With its creative visuals, this tool could be very engaging for primary and secondary school students.
Cost: Free without registration.
