  • We believe that everyone should have the same opportunity to learn. The best way to make this possible, we believe, is to organize into one, super directory the hundreds of thousands of good videos currently available on the Internet. To make this a reality, we invite teachers, instructors and educators to suggest videos for inclusion into our directory, and then to review, approve, and assign those videos into appropriate categories using a wiki framework and philosophy. The videos are the highest quality found on the World Wide Web, cover all major educational topics from elementary to secondary schools (or age range 1 – 18), and are Kid Safe!

      This is a great site that provides videos for educators to use in their classrooms. It's organized in a wiki framework so that all types of educators can collaborate in order to provide great tools for students. I encourage my teachers to search for videos they can use in their classroom as well as to share videos they have created.

    This web site helps teachers and students find valuable, educational videos from You Tube, Teacher Tube, and other places online. There is an advisory committee that chooses which videos are appropriate for the site and each video is tagged with an age appropriate label. You can search by subject area or a keyword search.

    Has some very good lessons on note duration, meters in music, and drills under "trainer" to help students learn notes.

    This is a great tool to use with music students of all ages. There are many written trainers (notes, guitar, piano, scales, etc.) and ear trainers (scales, intervals, triads, chords). I use it in class with my high school music theory students (particularly for ear training), and they can access it anywhere to practice.

BULLYING GUIDANCE EDUCATION SAFETY SCHOOL

shared by Joan Moore on 20 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • This fall, there are new and revamped laws in many states that address K-12 bullying and cyber bullying. In Massachusetts, we have one of the most comprehensive and far-reaching laws in the country. As in many states, K-12 teachers in Massachusetts have new responsibilities to respond to, report, and address bullying and cyber bullying. Here at the Massachusetts Aggression Reduction Center (MARC), we’ve developed 10 tips to help faculty cope with what can seem an overwhelming task.

      Seems like a neat tool to use in a classroom. Student could create their presentations and use their own voices to narrate. Since it is online with many ways to add comments, it could be used anywhere, not have to be done in school. I'm not sure about the K-12 edu voice. It seems like a nice thing to have, but it does have a subscription cost.

    Create multi-media slide shows that contain images, documents, and video. Comments can be left on each slide in 5 different ways. his could be use with students to create all kinds of presentations and ways to display their learning. They could video tape a science lab and then use this to narrate their learning as they go through the video. Teachers could use this tool to video their classroom and then collaborate with one another using this tool. The collaboration could take place with teacher from different districts, states, even countries.

    Glogster is a great Web 2.0 tool that I am using for the second year in my classes. Glogs are essentially online posters that allow users to display information in a different format than the traditional poster or powerpoint. Users can upload pictures, video, and audio, or they search glogster's database for relevant images, etc.

    I use Slideshare quite often in order to take a PowerPoint presentation that I used at a face-to-face professional development session and place it for viewing on a website. It's quick and easy. I usually have a website for most of the professional development presentations I do with resources, etc. and so this just makes it very quick and easy to add the PP that I used also.

      These have uses as we think about the 21st Century learners. Right away it makes me think of financial literacy.
  • Kim Swartz on 13 Jul 10
     
    This site has quick videos (around three minutes or less) that explain things in very simple terms. They use paper cut outs as they explain about technology, money, etc. I know that Barb has used these in our class. I didn't realize there were so many. When I looked at some of them, I thought about the 21st Century learner and how teachers might use these videos with students to help them learn about finances. They can be used personally for free or professionally for a fee. Teachers would have to be careful not to infringe on copyright issues, but this would be a nice way to introduce many concepts to students.
  • Julie Crotty on 15 Jul 10
     
    I love the Common Craft products, too! Every time I watch one of the videos, I'm amazed at the clarity of the explanation! They are able to take very complex tools, and make them seem simple. I think one of the best things about this is that they provide a "conceptual" look at the tool, rather than simply a "how to use it" video. For me, I often find myself experimenting with how to use a tool, before I really even understand conceptually what the tool is and what it can do! (A clear example of the many times when I don't know what I don't know!) This Common Craft site is one that I will bookmark, and return to often.

    Helping you use the internet effectively. Tutorials, assessments, learning and practice assignments for k-12 covering many curriculum areas using the internet. This site has helped me in differentiating my instruction to the many ability levels in my class. Students can start at the very beginning or start with a more advanced assignment. A lot like Atomic Learning, it uses a show, tell, and try it method of instruction along with links to go back and review a concept if you forget.

    This looks great! I heard about Glogster last year from one of my students, and am determined to learn how to use it this summer. My plan is to incorporate the use of Glogster in a class I teach this year, in place of a very traditional assignment to create a poster that captures students' greatest "ahas" from the class. This will not only create a better product- because of the links, video, audio etc., but will expose class members to a tool they may not have heard of.
