The Dvolver Phenomenon - EFL Magazine By Charles McKinney, IV When I started my English-teaching career in South Korea, my Korean co-teacher discovered an interesting website from a teacher-training workshop she attended. The website is called Dvolver, which is a free moviemaking platform that allows users to employ animated characters to develop concise and fun scripts, all in digital format. As soon as I perused the site for myself, I knew it would tickle our students’ fancy. Indeed, we intended to create a 45-minute lesson plan that centered on teaching the upper beginner to lower intermediate high school students how the website worked and how they could experiment with language in cutting-edge, imaginative ways that might improve attitudes toward learning a second language (learning English can be enjoyable).
