Ask yourself questions when considering which tool to use to create your project:

What is the purpose of the tool?

Will learning how to use it, or navigating the challenges of the tool, fit into my time frame?

Does the tool showcase and enhance the information that I want others to understand?

Does the tool meet the criteria given in the assignment?

Considering the audience, do I need the text recorded? Does the tool allow for that?

Does the tool I select allow for easy posting to the Wiki or Moodle?
