Lisa's Lingo: Best Day Ever! 3 Skype Calls - 1 views

  • three Skype calls, all with a purpose, and one was quite exceptional.
  • middle school teacher in Connecticut
  • looking for elementary students to critique songs his students were creating about the Oregon Trail. How serendipitous it was that we are studying the Oregon Trail now.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • we Skyped with his class so they could find out what kind of songs our students liked.
  • all week, the students have been brainstorming ideas in the Google doc.
  • speak with some of my students who are researching the government of Canada and various provinces there. She explained how the government works and gave a clear explanation of a Parliament. She then answered questions about Canadian homes, her house (she was in her home while Skyping with us) and any pets she might have. She even sent us pictures of her cats
  • the most impressive use of collaborative technology I've ever seen in my room. Today was the day that we skyped with our writing partners.
  • third Skype call was with my Teachers Are Talking
  • So at 1:00, each child opened up their document and found that their partner was editing also
  • et up a computer with Skype that we placed in a corner of the room. One group at a time sat at the Skype computers and discussed their story.
  • principal was invited in to witness this project
  • inspired enough to say we need to find grants to give us enough money to buy 1 to 1 laptops for our classroom.
  • Maybe one of the most impressive bits to all of this is that the technology held up it's end of the bargain. I hope I have permission to use this post in my pursuit of Skype. My district is currently blocking it.

    Lisa Parisi's blog post about a collaborative writing experience. Today was the day that we skyped with our writing partners. Brian Crosby and I started a collaborative writing project based on the book The Mysteries of Harris Burdick, by Chris van Allsburg. We partnered up our students on individual stories from the book. Their assignment is to create an original story based on a picture and a title. After enlisting Christine Southard for this project, we then duplicated it for 8 other teachers. Each story is going to be written and edited in a Google doc. It will then be published in our Class Booktalk Wiki, where VoiceThreads will be available for the students to compare story versions.

20 Hottest Hashtags for Teachers on Twitter - Best Colleges Online - 4 views

  •  
    "As a teacher, continuing education is so important that most school districts require that teachers enroll in some form of coursework on a regular basis to keep their knowledge and skills fresh. And while those courses are essential, staying on top of the cutting edge of educational development is important as well. Through Twitter discussions, teachers can follow the latest in education, whether it's educational technology or new ways to teach math. These 20 hashtags offer teachers a convenient way to become part of chats and discussions that share the absolute latest in education news, resources, and ideas."

    This is a great compilation of twitter hashtags for educators! My favorites are #edchat and #edapp but they are all great ways to get great information about resources and best practices in education. I also love #eduwin where educators are sharing daily posts about what they are doing to make a difference each day in teaching/learning.
