OneVoice Lite - AAC - 0 views

  •  
    Full version is $200 "This is a lite version of OneVoice and does not include speech capabilities. Purchase the full version if you need voices. OneVoice turns the iPad or iPhone into an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) device. Building on the simplicity of iOS devices, OneVoice is easy to understand, and designed for usability above everything else. Though OneVoice comes with a pre-populated vocabulary (focused on children) the real value is that you can easily add your own phrases and photos to create a custom experience.

Systems of Support | Supporting Educator Excellence through Technology and StrategySystems of Support - 0 views

  •  
    As thought leaders and practical innovators in education, we live in the intersection of technology and strategy. We look deep into the reservoir of the research literature, balanced with the real-life of today's educational environments, to share content for your immediate use (or at least to encourage immediate thinking). This site is a modern day chalk board where we sketch out our ideas, discoveries of others, and "stumble-ons" that we had no idea existed. Jason Gibson (the strategist) and Jason Carroll (the technologist) are popular conference speakers that have engaged educators, counselors, and administrators from across the globe (often referred to as The Jasons). Heavily influenced by the tpack, universal design for learning, and systematic instruction frameworks, we focus on tools and strategies that make a difference.

    "AT of the Week is a simple idea.  Each week I'll try to hunt around the web and find a free or open source assistive technology solution.  If I can host it, I'll store it and provide a link to it on this page.  Sometimes that will link to third party sites where you can safely download the solution from."

hickstro - What's_the_Matter_with_Wikis - 1 views

  • Details last edit Nov 21, 2009 5:20 am by hickstro - 5 revisions Tags edit Type a tag name. Press comma or enter to add another. Cancel What's the Matter with Wikis? Exploring the Social Space of Wikis as a Collaborative Writing tool
  • Abstract As we invite students to compose and collaborate in online spaces, wikis have emerged as a primary tool for writing. While wikis sometimes have a negative connotation in academic circles -- any discussion of Wikipedia will assuredly bring out a range of emotions in teachers and researchers -- the basic principles of wiki writing offers students many opportunities to draft, publish, and revise their work. Moreover, wikis provide opportunities for students to develop online communities, embed additional web-based media into their writing, and monitor their own work over time. This segment of our workshop will invite you to become a wiki writer, seeing the possibilities for yourself and allowing you to set up your own class wiki in the process.
