  • In the U.S, approximately 9.5 million students are digitally excluded outside of their schools. According to the Federal Reserve, these students have a high school graduation rate six to eight percentage points lower than those who have home access to the Internet.

      I applaud Microsoft and their partners for taking action to close this achievement gap.

      This is a great site to use as educators for learning how how to incorporate technology in your classroom without actually having a computer for every student to use.
  • #3. Set up your technology in front of your students while talking them through the process. Eventually, create a "tech crew" made up of first period students that set up your technology during announcements in the morning. Maybe they come in a few minutes early. However you want to work it, ask the students to be involved.
  • #10. Present your lesson using a Powerpoint or a Prezi. Better yet, initially create it with input from the class so they can see how you assemble it. Now you're discussing content and methodology.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • #6. Skype with another teacher on campus in front of the classes.
  • #11. Show an excerpt from a TED.com video to introduce a concept.
  • use a digital frame on your desk with scrolling pictures from your own collection.
  • #18. Download Evernote to all of your devices so that as anything occurs to you (questions, eureka moments, resources discussed, etc.) you can whip out your smart phone, laptop, iPad, whatever, and model using the Cloud for ongoing note taking.
  • #20. Model flexibility. Remember, whenever you use technology, things go wrong. Have a Plan B or at least model "water off a duck."

Discussion:Transfer Cassette Tape to Computer - wikiHow - 0 views

Audio transfer CD Cassette

shared by Linda Harmon on 11 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • The method described in this article is really only good for mono cassettes, i.e. spoken word, live recordings done with a boom box, etc. where the quality of the tape already matches the lower quality of the recording method. The only real way to do this right is to buy a) a high quality tape deck with stereo RCA outputs, b) a nice PC soundcard with stereo inputs, and c) a soundcard and/or audio recording program that includes noise reduction (specifically those designed for transfers from LP or cassette to digital).

    In case you ever need to transfer media from one format to another. There are also units that transfer vinyl to MP3s
