Indeed, the iPad even has some built-in video editing capabilities: The built-in Camera app lets you trim the start and endpoints of your cinematic creation by dragging the edges of a single timeline view at the top. But to really edit video in earnest-to add transitions and titles and join and split clips-you'll need one of the apps here.

Radbox works through a simple bookmarklet that you click whenever you're on a page with a video you want to save. The basic compatibility list reads "YouTube, Vimeo, Metacafe, DailyMotion, CollegeHumor, Hulu, Blip.tv, Megavideo, TED, etc." In my own testing, I liked the way Radbox lined up and played my selected videos with a note about when I saved them, but found that, about half the time, I'd need to click on a video and bring it up on its original site (i.e. click embedded YouTube clips and view them on YouTube) to ensure the Radbox bookmarklet picked up the video for sure. Radbox is a free service, requires a quick sign-up to use

It is a learning strategy developed by Lyman and associates to encourage student classroom participation. What is Think, Pair, Share? Think-Pair-Share is a strategy designed to provide students with "food for thought" on a given topics enabling them to formulate individual ideas and share these ideas with another student. It is a learning strategy developed by Lyman and associates to encourage student classroom participation. Rather than using a basic recitation method in which a teacher poses a question and one student offers a response, Think-Pair-Share encourages a high degree of pupil response and can help keep students on task. What is its purpose? * Providing "think time" increases quality of student responses. * Students become actively involved in thinking about the concepts presented in the lesson. * Research tells us that we need time to mentally "chew over" new ideas in order to store them in memory. When teachers present too much information all at once, much of that information is lost. If we give students time to "think-pair-share" throughout the lesson, more of the critical information is retained. * When students talk over new ideas, they are forced to make sense of those new ideas in terms of their prior knowledge. Their misunderstandings about the topic are often revealed (and resolved) during this discussion stage. * Students are more willing to participate since they don't feel the peer pressure involved in responding in front of the whole class. * Think-Pair-Share is easy to use on the spur of the moment. * Easy to use in large classes. How can I do it? * With students seated in teams of 4, have them number them from 1 to 4. * Announce a discussion topic or problem to solve. (Example: Which room in our school is larg
