For the students in Laura Sanderfordâs sixth-grade science class, Keynote â08 proved to be a roller-coaster experience. And they loved every minute of it. Having just learned about Newtonâs laws of physics and researched the history of roller coasters, the class next built their own roller coasters as a science project. To share their experiences with other students, Sanderfordâs class turned to Keynote.  âThe intuitive, seamless way that Keynote works with iLife made the project not only fun, but extremely easy,â she says. âThe kids could edit videos with iMovie, and make their own music and record their thoughts with GarageBand, and then bring it all into Keynote. Everything works together so fluidly.â
