  • There are already many online communities through which educators can connect with people and resources, but these communities tend to be isolated from each other, leading to redundancy of effort, missed opportunities for collaboration, and difficulty in finding appropriate support and resources.

      Teitter, Plurk and other social networking sites tend to be the most popular with teachers
  • The Department of Education and the Department of Defense are actively seeking participation in an exciting new joint project, the Learning Registry, which is designed to ensure that educators, learners, innovators, and the general public can access learning resources easily from a variety of platforms-websites, community portals, and other repositories of digital learning resources

      In September, the Learning Registry will form a permanent network of digital learning resource providers. It will enable each provider to share its content with any other repository or resource aggregator that wants to harvest it. With this integration, a user need search only a single website to find resources produced from many sites. The Learning Registry will be robust, having no single point of failure or control, and flexible, allowing different levels of participation.

Learn Instructional Technology - 0 views

    Welcome to the Learn Instructional Technology (LIT) website! The site is organized like a digital textbook, but instead of chapters it contains modules. The overall objective of the modules is to provide you with an interactive learning experience for instructional technology. The modules are full of a variety of types of resources including text, images, and video tutorials; all centered around exposing you to the variety of instructional technologies available today and increasing your technology literacy. The site places an emphasis on application along with theory integrated throughout the content. But best of all...the site is dynamic! As the technology evolves, the content on the site evolves right along with it.

Welcome to the Learning Activity Types Wiki - 0 views

  •  
    This is a virtual place for folks interested in learning to "operationalize TPACK" (Technology, Pedagogy, and Content Knowledge) via curriculum-based learning activity types ('ATs') to get up-to-date information, and (more importantly) participate in the vetting and refining of the activity types in each of the curriculum areas in which activity type development is happening. The curricula in which we are developing and refining learning activity type taxonomies appear on the left. Those that have taxonomies available for your perusal and feedback have links to other pages in this wiki. Links to online surveys to use to provide feedback are included on live curriculum area pages.

  • Sequencing with a SmartBoard- In this lesson, students will be assembled into groups of three or four. Students will be responsible for reading a selected picture book, identifying six main ideas from the text, and mixing the main events into an unorganized list. Student groups will then record their unorganized lists into the SMARTBoard notebook software. Once all groups have entered their list, student groups will receive a different group’s book and their created list. Students will organize the new list of main events, and using the Smart Ideas Software or concept mapping software, create a concept map of the assigned story and events.
  • SmartBoard Lessons Podcast Collection -The purpose of this site is to accompany a free podcast that focuses on using SMART Boards in the classroom. Each episode will feature a lesson, a podcast, and user comments. The hosts, Joan Badger and Ben Hazzard, have been recognized as Canadian & International Innovative Teachers by Microsoft, SMART Exemplary Educators, Peer Educators, Tradeshow Teachers, and Conference Presenters on the use of SMARTBoards in the classroom.

    Amphitheater Public Schools maintains this page as a resource for teachers who need a centralized place to come for learning the basics and techniques of using a Smartboard. It lists several sites that have pre-made compatible lessons in many subjects that can be addressed by students on the Whiteboard. There is a link to a Podcast collection which contains lessons, Smartboard Podcasts, and comments. It follows good educational pedogogy and utilizes lessons that stretch the imagination and gets students to think by acting and reacting with the Smartboard.
