The iMovie software is a great tool for the novice movie maker. I have used iMovie in the classrooms for various projects over the last two years. The softwares uses really depend upon the user, all grade level teachers and students could benefit from its use. Students will need basic computer skills to edit videos, probably best suited for 3rd grade and olde if used independently. The iMovie software runs on any Macintosh computer with a Intel Core Duo processor or better.
