Free animations & videos

These animations are (mostly) free to LINK TO but you may or may not have permission to download them for yourself or your course. If a selected animation is not already in PowerPoint, you can embed the link in a slide or (if permissable) download the animation and use it in the slide directly.

The recommendations below have been screened to include those that are free links and available for educational use. But things sometimes change. So it is up to YOU to verify cost and/or appropriate use before you use any of them.
