    The idea of this website is a great one--it allows you to create animations and work off of ones created by others. Creating animations is made very easy with DoInk. By being able to see the work of others, it's a good way to get ideas and inspiration. I think that children could have a lot of fun with this; however, the content of the site isn't very appropriate for young children in that some of the animations posted by others may be disturbing for them. There is even a minimum age of 13 to be able to use it. If DoInk were to make a kid-friendly site with this same idea, I think it would be a lot of fun. It's very interactive and allows for an endless amount of creativity and expression. It could be a great website for children to work on by themselves, with friends, or even family members. Once an animation is complete, it can be posted anywhere on the web. This would be great for a classroom blog or to share with family members.

    Floorplanner is a resource that I discovered in my EDIT 2000 class and have used numerous times since then. It is an interior design software that helps create layouts and floorplans, as the name might suggest. What does this have to do with education, right? My original use for it was to create my ideal classroom in the land of unlimited resources. If I wanted to, I could go back in and create a more realistic classroom so I could visually lay out how I wanted to conserve my space. This tool would be useful for anyone trying to visually plan out how to lay out a space, whether it be a classroom, bedroom, hospital room, cafeteria, etc. This resource taught me a lot about classroom layout and the way to make a classroom more efficient and user-friendly, which is huge in any educational setting.

    This site allows anyone to create their own website. It is easy to use, and it can help you create an educational website. It seems to be more aimed at use for businesses, but it could easily be used to create a website for a preschool classroom to keep the parents and teachers on the same page!

    This is a great site for creating a website. It is easy to use, gives you lots of options to create an individualized and unique website, and could be used in any classroom (from preschool to college!) for creating a class website to keep students, parents, and teachers on the same page.

    Great new app that was recommended to me. Great potential for young students and possible applications for French Immersion or other second language students. Key premise is that students are shown an image and then have 30 seconds to record their voice as they add to the story. Finished product becomes an iBook that others can listen to.

  • Subscribing to Blogs For those not already familiar with this … there are two common ways to do this – some blogs allow users to subscribe by simply entering their email address (and then confirming the validating email sent to them). The more common technique for subscribing to a blog is to subscribe to an RSS Feed. An RSS Feed directs the blog, or a summary and link to it, to a special place where you can go and view it (as opposed to having it go to your crowded email In Box).
  • Some suggested sites where you can create your Education-specific Blog There are many websites on the Internet where educators can write their own blogs. One way to do this is to become part of an organization that provides its members a place to blog, such as Educause, or Classroom 2.0. The other way to write your own blog is to set yourself up on one of the many sites that are designed to allow you to create your own domain or subdomain, where the content is entirely yours. While this may sound a little daunting to newbies, it really isn’t too hard to get started. Below I have listed two such sites, both of which are free, and are very widely used.

    #6. Glogster EDU- This is a great way to incorporate the school into the home. This program allows teacher to show caregivers what is being done in the classroom (i.e. uploading class calendars, posting students' projects, etc.). If teachers post educational practice links, students are able to practice certain skills learned in the classroom at home. This program also allows parents to connect with the teacher, it will allow parents and teachers to communicate via blogs.

    Wonderful that someone put together a list of the top ten tools for young children,their parents and teachers. Several sites would be helpful in working with young children or counseling are: 1. Wordle - students could create a poster of words they know and continue adding new words. 2. Yola - a user friendly software that allows teacher, parents, student to create a web site.to share information with others. 3. Blogs - the KinderKids Blog published class projects that could be view by parents or serve as means of communicating with classrooms around the world.

    Not sure how best to categorize this site- lots going on, from studies" on parents' and educators' attitudes regarding digital media use in young children" to" ways ""new" literacies can converge with emerging media to produce a powerful new learning equation that can stimulate both our early education system and our children's abilities to innovate and create."

    This app was created with Eric Carle and uses his illustrations for simple games. They will be adding more games, which you will have to purchase, as they are created, all based on Eric Carle books. Very nice app for young children

    Blogger.com is a website where individuals can create blogs that are available to the public to read. These blogs can also be made private so that only the blogger and his/her invited friends can view the blog. This site is helpful for making others aware of what the blogger is interested in or what the blogger would like to inform people of.

    KidVideos is like Youtube for kids. The contents of the videos are appropriate for kids with precreening and monitoring of comments. Children can watch videos in different categories and share their own online. There even contests on the website that the children can enter. Videos can be shared with the children's family. Children can have fun directing, acting, and producing their own videos and possibly creating their own show!

    This would be a great resource to use when counseling children. In conjunction with Art Therapy, the child could create characters to express themselves and situations. These could be saved, shared, and used to analyze the child's progress.

    Carepages is a site that allows individuals undergoing a health care challenge to connect with others going through the same experience. Families are also able to create their own blogs and websites where they can share updates with family and friends. Carepages provides support, community, and resources for anyone needing information and help during these trying times.Teachers can use this site to gain knowledge of conditions that might be affecting their students as well as by providing them with a way to check in on a student who might be in the hospital.
  • Annalise Walker on 01 Mar 09
     
    Carepages are a great way for families and patients to keep family and friends updated both in and out of the hospital. They would also be a great way for teachers and students to stay in touch with a friend who is in the hospital and missing school.

    A website that connects patients during a "health challenge." This site, like CaringBridge, is for ill children and families and has information, discussion boards, and blogging. Although useful for a certain segment of the population, does it belong on techhome?
