    What it does: There are 36 different graphic organizers that teachers and students can print and use. Why this one: This site has 36 different graphic organizers for which permission is granted for educators to reproduce and utilize. The variety of organizers covers a large realm of different possibilities for different project. Learning benefits: Teachers can use these for themselves as well as students and could generate a great deal of ideas on how to incorporate into a multimedia method. The conversion from paper to electronic would serve two purposes - generative learning of creating an electronic version and the graphic organization of the lesson.

    This is a good site for the most basic graphic organizers to the more difficult organizers. There are also a variety of organizers on this site. In some cases, I could use these as organizers for the material in the presentation, offer the organizers as tools for the participants to use to note take, and to use to organize their information throughout the presentation. More importantly, these can be used to also help teach research strategies when participants take the training materials to the classroom.
  •  
    Eduplace provides free graphic organizers that users can modify to fit their needs. These graphic organizers promote essential learning because it aids in the organization of content. I chose this site because of its wide variety of graphic organizer types and because it was part of a reputable organization, Houghton Mifflin publishers.

    Education Place provides a repository of printable graphic organizers.

Free Online Whiteboard and Collaboration Tool - Scribblar.com - 0 views

  •  
    Scribbler is a great, user friendly multi-user whiteboard application where groups and individuals can meet together and not only create, but edit and converse about assignments and projects. This can be used for an entire session of a workshop to meet online rather than face to face, or through a website.

    Google Docs is a wonderful platform for groups and individuals to interact and collaborate on an assignment. Private groups can edit and use this application to work on projects, spreadsheets, drawings saving information in one convenient location. In the past, I have used this while my group was on Skype, where we were able to compete an assignment within a few minutes.

  •  
    The site offers teachers free organizers to help them brainstorm, organize, and visualize their instructional ideas. \nWhy this one: First, the user downloads the vocabulary organizer. Next, the user inputs the information onto the form and prints it out. In addition, the website has free teaching lesson plan notes accompanying each organizer. It is free and very easy to use. The graphic organizer is a great instructional tool for generative learning.

TechSmith | Jing, instant screenshots and screencasts, home - 1 views

  •  
    This is the site to download the free version of Jing. You can also purchase the professional version. This tool will be used to create how to videos and real time screen sharing. When learners see step by step processes in real time, it helps to reinforce the concepts and increases memory. These videos can also be shared via HTML and as downloads. Because the HTML codes are easy (cut and paste) and the loading of the presentation (click play), learners will not have to have high tech skills to access the videos and they have the oprion to save them and revisit them.

    The free Jing program allows teachers to capture videos along with narration from the computer screen. In addition, users can create technology tutorials for their students, and collaborative projects among the users through video.\nWhy this one: The Jing program allows the presenter to share screen shots of documents and tutorials on the computer screen without having the actual documents in hand. For essential learning, learners can see exactly what they are supposed to do on the computer screen.\n
  •  
    Brief description of what it allows you to do and how it can be used for essential or generative learning: Jing is awesome!! Jing allows you to quickly take screenshots or record short videos. If one is intending participants to have something set-up before the presentation, record a Jing and save the file or easily share the file using sites like screencast.com. Jing allows audience members to be prepared for the speaker. Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found (e.g., more effective, creates better products, easier to use, and so on): Easy to use! You can also pause the recording while making it as well as mute. Screencast.com allows for quick sharing in multiple forms.
  •  
    Learners can use jing to record their activities that demonstrate their learning within the Bb environment. It connects visuals with audio and can demonstrate, highlight, and segment items in accordance with best-practices in multimedia design. It's better than other products because it's easy to use and free!

    Assignment # 3 Students can create their own comics by mixing and matching backgrounds, characters, props, adding text, and printing their creation. This is a good assessment tool to assess the learner's skills. For example: a marketing /advertisement project.

Skype - 0 views

  •  
    Skype allows video conferencing between participants and students sharing sample media projects. By initiating motivation for the workshop through synchronous communication with student experts, participants experience generative processing. This procedure will demonstrate the purpose of the workshop and increase motivation for participation. Skype is free, available on my school server, and easy to install and use.

Text 2 Mind Map - 0 views

  •  
    Online mindmap generator. Great for generative learning processes of making connections to prior knowledge. Explanation of choice: Recommended because it only requires you to type in an outline of text and in one-click transforms it to a free mindmap, which, unlike others, can be saved as a jpg.
  •  
    2. Graphic organizer, 8847_graphic_organizers tag in Diigo Text 2 Mind Map is a web application that converts a structured list of words or sentences, interprets them, and draws a versatile and user-friendly mind map.
  •  
    This site does the reverse of a tool in Inspiration. This site takes an outline and turns it into a mindmap, thereby allowing the user to have a graphic representation of ideas for any kind of project that is in outline form. Text 2 Mind Map is still in development, but from what I saw in the overall tool it does function well.

Gliffy for Graphic Organizers - 0 views

  •  
    Online graphic organizer creation tool. Great for generative learning processes helping students make connections to prior learning. Explanation of choice: Recommended because it is online, free, and unlike other tools, no signup is required.

    This site allows you to create diagrams and graphic organizers online. It is great for essential learning to help participants with understanding of key concepts. It is easy to use the only drawback, is that it requires a fee.
  •  
    Gliffy provides the typical "flowchart" type graphic. Sometimes, these are the best manners of organizing information prior to learning, since it clearly identifies the "big" ideas, as well as supporting details. It is better than many graphic organizers since it also enables the user to create Venn Diagrams, SWOT analysis, or floor plans. This free version is available for only a limited number of uses.
  •  
    Gliffy provides users with an online interface for creating flowcharts, diagrams, and other graphic organizers. This site allows users to either choose from predesigned templates or to build graphic organizers from scratch. The diagrams can be easily saved as .jpeg files or published to the Internet. This online interface makes is possible for users to visually depict essential material and then develop the necessary connections for generative processing. This website is better than other sites that offer access to graphic organizers because users have the choice between preformatted templates and creating their own diagrams. In addition, users are responsible for inputting the relevant information related to their project. In addition, this website allows users to create their diagrams on the computer rather than simply printing off templates and completing them by hand.
  •  
    Gliffy allows users to create custom graphic organizers. Starting with a basic design, users can edit the graphic organizer to fit their needs, based on the content. Customization includes additional boxes, connections, or color. A teacher could also begin to fill in the graphic organizer with major topics or key terms. With a pro account, users can add collaborators or publish the graphic organizer to the web. Gliffy can contribute to essential and generative processing by allowing learners to manage and organize the information being presented to them. It is better than other similar sites because it allows the user to customize the graphic organizer to the needs created by the content.

Prezent It - Create, share and show your presentations online - 1 views

    This is a great online alternative to Power Point. It allows you to create power point style presentations that can be shared via a url or downloaded. It is a great alternative first, because its free and still offers most of the common options used in Power Point. Being able to share it via url, and allow the users to download it as an html.

    This site allows the user to create a slide show presetnation from anywhere without having to use PowerPoint. The only thing needed is a web browser and this is compatible with IE 7, Firfox and Camino. What I liked best about this site is its ease of use and that all members can work on the same presentation at the same time. Also, there is no limit to the number or length of the presentation. You even have 250MB to store photos.
  •  
    What it does: It is a simplified version of Power Point allowing a user to create slides. Why this one: It is free and easy to use. It is also web-based so that teachers do not need to copy it into folders, files, or CDs. The recurring theme that I have tried to maintain is the need for simplicity and efficient use of time. Creating multimedia presentations are but a small fraction of the enormous number of jobs a teacher must complete. This application, while more limited than Power Point, does allow teachers to complete a project in less time. Learning benefits: Teachers can quickly create a number of messages for essential learning using this package. As well, they can incorporate mind maps, graphic organizers, or other tools to expand the learning process into generative thinking.
  •  
    The free web based presentation software program allows teachers to create presentations without having an Internet connection. \nWhy this one: The presentation software program is easy to use and generates the slides as web pages. The programs allows users to have unlimited online collaboration. Generative thinking supported through mind maps and graphic organizers.\n
  •  
    PreZentIt is a free presentation, web-based program for creating, editing and presenting images and text. This seems almost the same as creating a powerpoint presentation, except it allows multiple user editing simultaneously, and is on the cloud, so isn't 'stuck" on a computer, when you need it in another location.
  •  
    Very easy to use site for creating online, collaborative presentations (a la PowerPoint). The site offers very little in terms of how-to information, and it is primarily at the generative level of cognitive processing, focusing on creating and applying the tool. However, it is a very simple interface, much like PowerPoint stripped down to the basics. Its advantages are ease-of-use, share-ability, privacy options, and the ability to download presentations.
  •  
    Description: This site requires users to register in order to save and access presentations. It is simple and easy to use. Presentations can be accessed from any computer without downloading special plug-ins. Explanation: This is a good tool for users to create online presentations for sharing or accessing from anywhere. It is preferred to other sites because it is easy to use and free.
