I was recommended to use Adobe Spark for my research presentation by a colleague at work. I was so impressed how user friendly it was. It had many options for background theme, uploading your own music, pictures selection, and more. I think students will be entertain and more likely be engage using Adobe Spark because of the story telling, and the animated videos. Some of the weakness that I found was each slide is very limited to add content. A short sentence will be presentable. If added more writing, it will not show up on the slide. I think Adobe Spark will be very helpful to students on their PBL presentations because it is so easy to use.
The next tool I will use in my classes will be Fit Radio. I find students are more motivated and having fun with activities and fitness exercises while listening to music. The app is free and it's pretty easy to set up. Fit Radio is an uptempo music app without any commercial interruptions. Once a song ends, the next song starts to incorporate in, so there are no pauses throughout the playlist. There are different stations and genres that can be choose from that can inspire students to expenditure more energy in the activities. I really like how I don't have to start and stop the music therefore I can be more hands-on and spend time evaluating and assisting students.

I LOVE Adobe Spark and will be introducing it to the rest of the cohort in this class. Thanks for bringing it up.
