      This is the school I used to work in. I am so proud I worked there, not only gave me the chance to meet amazing people, but to learn a lot about technology. These videos are just a little of what they do with apps. Just wanted to share them with you.

  •  
    This Web site by the Irish polyglot who gave a TED talk about speaking from day one is billed as foreign language and travel hacks. Any brief perusal of social media sites like Pinterest or Tumblr will show that hacks are a popular topic -- life hacks, cleaning hacks, Disney hacks, etc.

Learning Technology News | Scoop.it - 1 views

  •  
    Very interesting postings, many of them with appealing pictures or other visuals. The topics seem to span a broad area within the area of learning with technology. This is Garett, by the way.
  •  
    Hi Garrett, I was following his blog, too: Niks' Learning Technology Blog (via Feedly). He reviews and demos a lot of great tools. One thing I had a problem with is that nothing seems to be dated. One of is blogs had a bunch of great tools on it and I found links that were useful. Then, other links in the same blog were broken or, even for me, seemed way out of date (hasn't everyone already heard of Firefox?).
  •  
    One of my friends started up one of these Scoop.it "newsletters" and I get messages weekly from it - automated. I wonder if she even knows it's still running...?

Make screencasts interactive with eduCanon | Douchy's Blog - 2 views

  • Because eduCanon uses HTML5, rather than Flash, playback works great on an iPad, too.
    • klmcguinness
       
      This could be an advantage for Apple devices. Flash has occasional issues with Apple products.
    • srafuller
       
      That's good to know. My students have a mixed bag of devices, and several have Ipads.
  • The first time students watch a video, they are unable to skip through the video; they have to watch the whole thing from start to finish and attempt every question.
    • klmcguinness
       
      Love this feature. Like with reading, middle schoolers pick through material to find the answers. We can't glue them to their seats, but they never know where those questions will pop up and they can't look ahead to see what answers they need to find. Love that!
  • You paste in the URL of the video, then watch it play
    • klmcguinness
       
      According to another blog I was reading regarding licensing and sharing, if the "embed" function is operable the owner has endorsed (consciously or thru oversight?) sharing.

  • The answers people choose in a public video are not collected by eduCanon.
    • klmcguinness
       
      Good to know to allay students' fears. Will they even think that their answers would be made public-probably not most MS students.
  • You can assign a video to the class, and then eduCanon collects data for you on your class’ completion of the task and their responses to your questions.
  • all of those features are 100% free

21st-Century PD: Retention, Reflection, and Redistribution of Knowledge | Edutopia - 4 views

  •  
    I like Edutopia because it provides great information and ideas about teaching in the 21st century.
  •  
    A good reminder to allow time for processing during PD presentations -
  •  
    Of all the blogs I've seen, Edutopia consistently has the most useful advice to give. I may not be in total agreement with all of it, but it is reliable and grounded.

Jordan Shapiro-Forbes - 3 views

  •  
    I have been following Shapiro for a little over a year now. I first became interested in him because as a former video-game player I was always interested in game based learning. Jordan covers the gamification of learning but also how ed-tech is changing the culture of learning in the U.S. and around the world.
