    New Post: Confessions of a Techno-Luddite - by John T. Spencer - Final Reflection on the Living Facebook Experiment ... http://ow.ly/1dlRjE What if I told people in person that I like what they say? What if I took physical pictures and sent hand-written notes people? What if I created my own Suburban Farmville? What if I lived an offline version of my online social media experience?

The Best Sources For Advice On Using Flip Video Cameras | Larry Ferlazzo's Websites of ... - 4 views

  • There’s a good video on YouTube on How To Use A Flip Video Camera. How To Us A Flip Camera is a simple guide with screenshots. David Pogue of the New York Times has a good review/description on using a Flip, and also has a video. Here are some tips on how to edit your videos after you’ve shot them. Here are some places to get ideas and tips on using them with students: Thirty-Nine Interesting Ways* to use your Pocket Video Camera in the Classroom is a great online presentation from Tom Barrett. 7 Things You Should Know About Flip Camcorders is a good overview on using them in education. Classroom 2.0 has a good discussion on its Forum about using Flips. I believe you can access it without being a member but, if not, it’s free and easy to join. Richard Byrne has started a collaborative project with teachers sharing Many Ways to Use Flip Video Cameras in the Classroom.

    I see a lot more students using cell phones at my building than there were just a year ago. This observation and the implications was a bit sobering. What challenges does the ubiquitous use of cell phones and other smart devices create for our network safeguards? Is cyberbullying going on in your building(s)? What options do targeted students and parents have for reporting or enacting a grievance against cyberbullying? Are reported correlations of student absenteeism and cyberbulliying accurate? I'd like to post this on our blogs and ask our staffs to weigh in on the topic.
