    "So far Paul Bogush's class commercial (10:34) is my favorite education video that I've seen this year. I'm not sure which part I like better, the first two-thirds with upbeat pictures and videos or the last third with student quotes, some of which nearly bring me to tears..."

Social Bookmarking with students: Quality not quantity! | The Edublogger - 0 views

  • Knowing how to organise, filter, research, evaluate and bookmark resources online is a valuable skill for students to gain. However, we can’t assume giving students access to a social bookmark tool means they’ll know what’s expected or will gain the necessary skills.
  • Students need explicit instructions and instructions to get the most out of social bookmarking. Students must see the point of aggregating bookmarks that they can return to for further use. Don’t expect them to initially appreciate the value of why they should bookmark. Students need to be aware of the types of bookmarks they can save. I teach history, so a bookmark could be a link to maps, photos, documents, quotes and so on –it’s like collecting different artifacts online. Students need to understand bookmarking is about finding quality links and not quantity.

    This is one of the things we need to model for our students (older grades)

The Educator's Guide to Copyright, Fair Use, and Creative Commons | The Edublogger - 0 views

  • The legal jargon with respect to digital copyrights can be confusing – especially since different countries have their own laws and regulations. With this post, we hope to dispel a few myths and pull together a complete list of resources for teachers and students to use when blogging and working with content online.
  • Rule #1: You Can’t Use Everything You Find On the Web
  • Rule #2: There Are Resources You CAN Use
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • The trouble is, most of the laws and rules that cover fair use and education were written well before the invention of the web.
  • But make sure to check specific copyright restrictions before uploading anything you’ve scanned to the web! For more, check out the Fair Use FAQ for Educators here from the excellent resource site, TeachingCopyright.org.
  • What Can Be a Violation? Here are the most common types of content that we have been contacted about and asked to remove on our blogs: Images – mostly found through google image search Curriculum docs – especially handouts and student activities Text and quotes – copy/pasted from other websites (even with a link or attribution it still may not be legal) Music – usually mp3s that students have uploaded to share on their blogs
