Way Cool, Robin! I started a lunch time Computer Game Club for activities like these. We've been doing, Millsberry, Penguin, Neopets, and Runescape. I love Civilization! These also make great after-school activities.Thanks for the suggestions, especially those that integrate into the classroom - Oh, and isn't Edutopia terrific?

shared by philipess on 10 Feb 10 - Cached

philipess on 10 Feb 10

Some of the ideas in this site remind me of a project I did a couple of years back with some gifted 7th graders in composition. Basically, they made a portfolio of their own "loop" compositions from the time they spent creating it on Acid 5 (a music loop-editing program) Sonar, and Audacity and from the chatting they did online using Blackboard (web 2.0) as a tool. If I had to do it today, I could probably work it out in large measure using wikispaces.

This site comes through Thinkfinity and this puts a music site out there for the group to check out. Thinkfinity looks like its rich resources will come in handy. When doing a music search on Thinkfinity, I typed in the key words music education and left all other drop down menus read ALL because it yielded better results for the music teacher as such. In a web 2.0 situation where I am working with a group, I can give multiple assignment choices to provoke diversity and interest.

This Digital Literacy Toolkit began with the premise that multimedia authoring, which is happening with the extensive use of PowerPoint in classrooms, must be taught as a skill, just as traditional text-based writing is taught. While teachers and students have become familiar with the technical skills required to use images in multimedia productions, they lack a critical language to determine whether an image or a sound is used appropriately.

Hello Ellen, This picking the correct Tab words is really tricky. I did a search, within this group, looking for this site. I typed in map and it didn't come up; I had to type in maps. I have to remember to think like a user. Great site!
