TotSpot | Baby Blog Website, Kids Online Scrapbook, Parent Community - 0 views

  •  
    TotSpot integrates many aspects of technology together to create a Facebook-like network for parents and their child. The network is private and accessible to only account holders. Parents create an account then are able to add their children to the account on their own page. Pages can be shared through friend invite. The parents and children can upload pictures, videos, write journals, create developmental charts, and track milestones. Friends on the account can view items and make comments. With families living far apart and technology on the rise, families can keep track of their childrens' progress (even before birth!)

  •  
    Dabbleboard is an online whiteboard that allows users to visualize, explore, communicate, create, and share their work. Users can chose from two ways of drawing: freehand or computer-recognized shapes. Either way, users can create a multitude of pieces. Dabbleboard can be especially helpful for students. They can create flow charts, organizational charts, or mind maps to process school topics. As well, they can create comic strips, mark on uploaded pictures, or freehand drawings to accompany an original story. There is also a collaborative feature, that allows users to voice and video chate, share with or browse the public library, or send the link of their creation via the web. There are endless possibilities for students to express their creativity using Dabbleboard.

    Bummer, this was last updated in January 2009. This looked nice!
  •  
    This site provides many examples of websites that parents or teachers could use with their children. Links are given with detailed descriptions, uses of the technology, and an example is provided that this mother used with her children. Examples of technology include make-your-own poster online and make-your-own video consisting of your photos.

Wallwisher.com :: Words that stick - 4 views

    different approach to viewing and making posts.....
  •  
    Not that useful for parents and young children. You can create post-its but it seems like there are more effective ways to get your message to someone.
  •  
    I really like this website. I think think that it could be useful in classroom or with families. In the classroom it could be used to easily access information found online throughout the day or as a means of communication with parents to get their feedback on things that are happening in class. At home you could send a link to you "wall" to different family members and post different photos or even artwork that children have completed. The content that is posted on your "wall" is edited and maintained by the creator, which allows for creativity and monitoring. Overall this was easy to use and could really be a fun way for people to interact!

Webstarts - 0 views

  •  
    Webstarts allows users to create a webpage for sharing photos, videos, and information. A classroom teacher could create a class webpage that parents can access, increasing the parents' classroom involvement. My favorite part of this website is that there are preloaded templates to make designing a page simpler. One option even looks like a page from a scrapbook, allowing the teacher to make a "scrapbook" of her class.

    Webs is a website creation tool that allows users to blog, share videos and photos, and engage in discussions in forums. The teacher could create a class website with pictures and videos of the children engaging in various activities. Parents could access this website to see what their children have been doing in class each day.

LTP | Getting Started: "I Wanna Take Me a Picture" - 2 views

  • we’re living in a visual culture
  • benefits of positive visual stimulation
  • Even very young children, when encouraged, have the ability to express their complex emotional lives visually.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • until the second or third grade a child’s predominant means of self-expression is drawing.
  • But when they’re just beginning to write, they often rely on their drawings rather than their writing to convey the meaning of the story.
  • the need to attend to our neglected physical and visual surroundings
  • and the need we all feel to articulate and communicate something relevant about our personal and communal lives.
  • thirty years of thinking about how we learn, and how we express ourselves with images.
  • when I demonstrated how the camera worked to the people I wanted to photograph, everyone, myself included, felt more at ease.
  • Their desire to be photographed was as strong as their desire to photograph.
  • The children’s pictures were more complicated and disturbing than mine — and, I began to realize, much closer to what it felt like to be there.
  • Merton’s photograph reflects that fear.
  • Their pictures and writings made for an uncompromising look at the problems they faced.
  • It’s unlikely that the young people would ever have written what they did without the pictures to prompt them (Kathy’s writing came from the beautiful landscape photographs she’d made), and the pictures would have been difficult to decipher without the stories to accompany them.
  • their photo-essays were a starting point for acknowledging and discussing, in their own voices, a very tough predicament. (
  • how photography and writing stimulated one another. Many of the students I worked with had trouble writing; they would labor painfully over a sentence or two. But when they worked from a photograph that had something to do with their own lives, especially a picture they had taken themselves, they were able to write more — and what they wrote about was their own experiences.
  • Asking them to write about the subject they were going to photograph, then asking them to make a list of images suggested by their writing — this was a way to help them organize their picture-taking before they went out to shoot.
  • These children had never seen each other’s neighborhoods, certainly not each other’s homes or families. They were essentially strangers to each other.
  • When the students brought back pictures of their families and communities, each child tried to explain what was going on in the pictures, and the others eagerly asked questions.
  • teachers rarely come from the same community as their students. Photographs can give them a glimpse into their students’ lives.
  • Photography is perhaps the most democratic visual art of our time. For most of us, picture taking is a part of our family lives. We don’t need a particular talent, like the hand-eye coordination necessary for drawing, to render what we look at. Even children and adults unfamiliar with photography can make photographs of what they see and imagine. For those of us who have used cameras, photography offers a language that can draw on the imagination in a way we may never have thought possible before.

    Wendy Ewald shares from lessons learned working with children, using photography to express themselves. Lots of interesting ideas.
