Nobel Prize 2012

shared by Brittany Miller on 12 Apr 13 - No Cached
  • The award ceremonies have developed a number of interesting traditions. For example, the prizes are physically presented to the winners by Nobel Laureates and every ceremony since 1996 has premiered its own mini-opera. They are written by Marc Abrahams (editor of the Annals of Improbable Research) and friends, and performed, during the ceremony, by professional opera singers and Nobel Laureates.
  • A video of Miss Sweetie Poo highlights from past Ig ceremonies is available on YouTube.

    Popplet is a Web 2.0 tool used for mind-mapping. I think it would be a great visual tool to help my media students organize topics and subtopics for research assignments. It is very user-friendly...I think most of my students could dive right in to using it after a very brief tutorial.

    This is a great online resource that students can use to create perfect MLA or APA citations. While it doesn't do ALL the work for students (as they'll still have to find and input the source's author, dates etc.), it will create a perfect citation after they've finished.

    This is a great resource for educators as well; you can create a "pin board" of images, videos, websites that are of interest to you. There are certain categories of public "pin boards" - the educators category is GREAT! Although a lot of them are geared towards elementary schools, there are some great ideas for educators at any level.

    I am such a fan of Pinterest. I have a board for everything! It is funny how you will start out just exploring the Pinterest site, and before you know it, you find yourself "Pinning" everything you come across on the web! Engaging students in a research project where they can utilize the different Pins provided, or having them post representative images for a visual literacy activity are just two of the many ways to use Pinterest with students.
