Six ways that artists hack your brain - New Scientist - 73 views

  •  
    Since humankind first put brush to canvas, artists have played with the mind and the senses to create sublime atmospheres and odd impressions. It is only recently, with a blossoming understanding of the way the brain deconstructs images, that neuroscientists and psychologists have finally begun to understand how these tricks work.

    Yes this was recently reviewed in a class for teaching ELL's with technology and we discussed the classroom capabilities (NEIU Chicago). It has a lot of potential and many graphic and style to chose from. On this note it was felt by the reviewers of the tool that it would be best used for older students. To have teacher control, the teacher should start each mural and give the group the link so that the teacher can monitor what is being developed by the students. The teacher should have control over the group and monitor content. I would like to see more suggestions regarding this tool.

Prezi - Zooming Presentations - 87 views

  •  
    Prezi is a web-based application that allows you to make pretty stunning presentations. What makes Prezi somewhat unique is that there are no slides. You essentially have one big canvas on which to place your text, images, video, and more. However, that is just the start of it...

My Weekly Reflections: My Weekly Reflections: My Portfolio - 19 views

  • I appreciated this perspective because I feel that one of my challenges in learning a topic is staying focused.  Focus doesn't just entail a conscious selection of important vs irrelevant information/ideas/experiences, but also the ability to persevere on a task when it becomes boring
    • David Masuda
       
      This is interesting. When learning is "fun", focus is easy. So when is learning NOT fun? I would say it is when you do it for an intrinsic motivator - a test, for example.
  • an important part of learning is sticking with a topic long enough to let it's nuances manifest.

    This site encourages children to be creative and share ideas. It's a cross between a blog and a digital canvas and formatting is really simple. Users just drag and drop the images and text however they wish. There is also a teacher sign up option, which lets you quickly add a whole class or school. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/ICT+%26+Web+Tools

Prezi - Ideas matter. - 42 views

    • Kalin Wilburn
       
      Prezi is a zooming presentation creator. It is easy to use and offers you a 21st century presentation that doesn't even compare to PowerPoint. Your presentations can have a professional appearance without having to switch between slides or add transitional effects to each individual detail. Prezi provides you a canvas to be creative on so don't be afraid to think outside the box -- explore other Prezis to get ideas (they will blow you away).

      My middle school students learn to use Prezi easily. It helps teach them literacy skills, organization, critical thinking, and all other skills related to writing an essay or story.

      I am working with the math teacher and his students are creating a math story using Prezi. They love the program and seem to be enjoying the project so far.

      " On est en même temps sur le tableau ?! " S'exclamèrent les élèves à qui j'ai présenté l'application il'y a deux ans. Plus que l'aspect visuel flateur, la dimension collaborative synchrone en fait un véritable outil social à la sauce Web2.0

Alice in WonderTech: Why I Chose Schoology Over All the Rest - 54 views

  • Nevertheless, it looks like Blackboard has some competition here because in December of 2010, the Utah Education Network of 17 colleges chose Canvas to replace Blackboard, and they've continue to convert many other universities since then.)

      University of Michigan (all three campuses) are making the switch as well.
  • I've been converted.  And I'll never look back.
