60 Second Recap provides book summaries in sixty second video segments.

60 Second Recap is a very new service still in its alpha phase of development; current book titles in its library are...

  • Animal Farm
  • Fahrenheit 451
  • Frankenstein
  • Great Expectations
  • Hamlet
  • Jane Eyre
  • Lord of the Flies
  • Of Mice and Men
  • Pride and Prejudice
  • Romeo and Juliet
  • The Catcher in the Rye
  • The Crucible
  • The Great Gatsby
  • The Scarlet Letter
  • The turn of the Screw and
  • To Kill a Mockingbird.

60 Second Recap could be the basis for a learner project in which they create their own video recaps of books they read. If practitioners or learners don't have access to video cameras, they could use a service like Animoto or Stupeflix to create their video recaps of the books they've read.
