EtherPad: Realtime Collaborative Text Editing - 1 views

  • EtherPad Sign In Blog Forums Support FAQ Pricing Tour Home EtherPad EtherPad is the only web-based word processor that allows people to work together in really real-time.
  • When multiple people edit the same document simultaneously, any changes are instantly reflected on everyone's screen. The result is a new and productive way to collaborate on text documents, useful for meeting notes, drafting sessions, education, team programming, and more.

    EtherPad is a web-based word processor that is an alternative to GoogleDocs when you don't need the complexity of having accounts, permissions, etc. A free public etherpad is shared with others by sending out the URL. Any one can access, edit, etc. just from the URL. I have found this tool very useful in collaborative meetings/planning sessions as a way to quickly draft and edit work collaboratively.

      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.

    This is an online bulletin board that allows users to post individual comments, etc. Great idea for teachers to post a question and have students make comments/ask or answer questions. Very collaborative and easy to use. Could be used with teachers/PLC's. Graphics are great!

    This is an online tool that you can access anywhere through an Internet browser. It allows you to take notes, tag them and then sort them whether by class or project. The sorting feature will be useful to both teachers and students and could be used collaboratively, but can also be used privately by using password protection. Has a tutorial for help with FAQs.

Prezi - 0 views

  •  
    Earlier during the school year, I collaborated on a presentation to the community on what the Iowa Core Curriculum looked like and what effects it might have on the school and the community. My principal used Prezi as a presentation tool. I really liked it and thought the students might really like using it as well. As a PLC, we expressed the need for students to have uniform presentation criteria. Prezi might be one of those tools. Power Point might be great, but this online tool is available to everyone anywhere they have internet access. Groups can also collaborate. I was doing a unit with my sophomores on overcoming adversity. After watching the movie We Are Marshall, I wanted them to choose a real-life person who has overcome adversity. I wanted them to do a presentation and so I did one in Prezi as a demonstration. Mine is only partially done because I used it as a demonstration tool. I am going to try to share the file, but I do not know if it will work or not. I may have to post again to get it to work. http://prezi.com/-jght3tofk0q/red-dawson/

    Voicethread is a versatile web 2.0 tool that I recommend to many teachers. It can incorporate images, text, and speech into one product and is a great alternative to traditional reports many times assigned to students.

Doing What Works - Home - 1 views

    This website has research-based practices and translates it into practical tools to improve classroom instruction. You can learn what works, understand the research, see what works, see it actually in action many times in the classroom through video, and do what works, download tools that can support the work. This is an awesome sight for educators! This site has many things that teachers could use to learn about and hone in on their instructional practices. It is a great springboard for learning and then using some web 2.0 tools to provide opportunities to collaborate with teachers either within their districts or in other districts would be a powerful learning tool.

    I was excited to see this free Web-conferencing tool. It can be used free to conduct a conference for up to 20 people - collaborative presentations, desktop sharing, chat, interactive audio, etc. Can use in conjunction with Skype. Benefit would be use in reaching students across various geographic locations. This tool could assist some students in feeling more connected to an online class by seeing actual desktops and the interactive audio.

SchoolTube - 0 views

  •  
    This video-sharing site is for educational videos that students have created to teach something. It is similar to YouTube and TeacherTube. For those students who are interested in YouTube, this provides a safer area with the focus on education - could be very motivating for some. It lets students work on a group video as well as independent videos online with possibilities to comment and discuss. Teachers could use it to view what their actual teaching looks like as a way to increase their effectiveness in the classroom as a professional development activity. Has contests, tutorials, tips, and videos on increasing effectiveness in producing videos.

    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.

SlideShare - 0 views

  • Upload and share your PowerPoint presentations, Word documents and Adobe PDF Portfolios on SlideShare. Share publicly or privately. Add audio to make a webinar.
  •  
    Since we use Google Docs at our school, we can accomplish a lot of the same things that slideshare does, but I still think it's a valuable site for making collaborative slide presentations and sharing them online.
  •  
    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.

WatchKnow - Free Educational Videos for K-12 Students - 1 views

  • 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!
    • Megan Andersen
       
      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.
