      Free to schools that didn't make AYP?! Wow!
  • Everywhere is free for people who need to collect 30 or less responses per poll, and progressive high schools who have struggled to make Adequate Yearly Progress.
  •  
    Free polling software (think: American Idol). Embed on a webpage, Power Point slide, etc and watch the results in real time! Neat animations, too. 1,000 free votes per month.

    Claims that it's free for "progressive schools who didn't make AYP"!

  • As the project got underway, there was considerable interest in seeing the how similarly K-12 and higher education were viewing emerging technology. As it turned out, there is a considerable overlap, but there are also clear distinctions.
  • collaborative environments and online communication tools
  • barriers such as policy constraints on using online tools, the fact that many students do not bring laptops to school (as opposed to many college students, who do), and policies that restrict Internet access in many schools.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Communication tools are a part of most students’ daily lives outside of school.
    • Michelle Krill
       
      Blogs, skype, and many other tools apply here. Moodle has some of these built in, as do other services.
  • Collaborative Environments,

      Online tools such as wikis, mindmapping sites, social networks would apply here.

      Collaborative Environments and online communication tools.

      I hope so. But, as I travel around the state I'm still seeing schools blocking wikis and blogs - even in IU buildings where the only users are adults! The fear of lawsuits is palpable! What we need is a news-worthy crisis to make us take this seriously.
  • Multi-touch interfaces, GPS capability, and the ability to run third-party applications make today’s mobile device an increasingly flexible tool that is readily adapted to a wide range of tasks for social networking, learning, and productivity.
  • Collaborative work, research, social networking, media sharing, virtual computers: all are enabled by applications that live in the cloud.

      Google Apps for Education is useful for cloud computing, as well as collaborative work.
  • There are a number of technologies that are used to configure and manage the ways in which we view and use the Internet;

      The start of this is already here with the use of RSS. Teachers and students can personalize their web experience, which in turn can personalize their learning experience.

Just say no to 'just say no' | Dangerously Irrelevant | Big Think - 5 views

shared by anonymous on 04 Jun 11 - No Cached
  • Perhaps we'll now do the same for schools' 'just say no' policies regarding Wikipedia, mobile phones, YouTube, and other digital technologies? I know. Wishful thinking...
  • I wonder if the fact that the National Archives has hired their first "Wikipedian in Residence” will help change the minds of some of those academics who now reflexively tell their students how evil the site is. If a large traditional keeper of information can work in that online space, maybe it’s not so bad after all. :-) http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/politics/conversations-dominic-mcdevitt-parks-national-archives-connects-with-wikipedia/2011/06/02/AGCYDWHH_story.html

AppsBar - 6 views

  •  
    Appsbar was designed to fill the gap between over-simplified apps and costly, professionally-produced apps. It presents myriad personalization opportunities with a unique interface that guides creators through the entire process - from creation, to editing, to publication - with visual and textual clues at each step. As creators build apps page by page, each app becomes more personalized through limitless combinations of background colors and fonts and the ability to upload images and videos from personal libraries. Appsbar was introduced in 2011 as the first cost-free way for anyone, at any skill level and with a limited budget, to make rich, personalized apps that reflect their own personality, business or event with direct access to app stores. Appsbar meets the demand for a turn-key solution for creating and publishing apps, while eliminating the common hassles faced by even experienced app developers, including how to develop for multiple devices and platforms, how to beat long-wait periods for publication, and how to stop rejections from app stores.

    "Swiffy converts Flash SWF files to HTML5, allowing you to reuse Flash content on devices without a Flash player (such as iPhones and iPads). Swiffy currently supports a subset of SWF 8 and ActionScript 2.0, and the output works in all Webkit browsers such as Chrome and Mobile Safari. If possible, exporting your Flash animation as a SWF 5 file might give better results. "
