    Wordpress http://wordpress.com/ Participants wll use this site to create their own Worpress blog with multimedia added. This will be a generative learning assignment because the participants will be creating their own blog. The blogs will be designed for their students. I chose this site because it is free and they can use their own e-mail account and not have to create a new Google account. Also Wrodpress is not a site blocked by our school system.

    This site is one of many blog sites that can be used to see if your participants have an understanding of esential concepts. You could use this blog site to have access your participants by having them blog about how they used the key concepts from your workshop in lessons or daily clasroom activities. This could be a post assessment.

    o Website where learners can create their own blog to share with teacher, other learners, or the profession at large in the case of teacher training. Learners can provide their in-depth analysis of concepts as well as examples and resources to support the information. Rather than a factual knowledge quiz, blogs provide learners with the opportunity to interpret and develop their own understanding and sense of concepts through cognitive processing. o This is an easy to use with multiple templates already set up for quick blog creation. However, the site still provides ample flexibility for the most adventurous type in search of customization.

    This website was chosen to demonstrate how collaboration among students can be easily facilitated using free online sites. Using a blogging site is as easy as creating one. This site should also be considered learner-centered, blogging can "aid human cognition."(p.15) Blogging can be used to further develop ideas through collaboration. Having teachers create their own blogs during the workshop is another example of a hands-on behavioral activity.

ePortfolios and GoogleApps - ePortfolios with GoogleApps - 0 views

  •  
    Dr. Barrett's (n.d.) webpage presents an introduction to the types of ePortfolios in a learner-centered approach. The website requires cognitive activity and capitalizes on the use of multimedia to present the essential content; and it does so following instructional design principles as recommended by Mayer (2009). Beginning with an anticipatory set to activate the learner's prior knowledge, the lesson page begins by asking learners to think about their own personal use of portfolios. Immediately following, the essential material elements are presented in a cartoon image, capitalizing on the benefits of dual coding (Id.), using both images and key words to help learners pay attention and select appropriate information. The image also relies on spatial contiguity (Id.) in its presentation format. This webpage itself would fit into Mayer's (Id.) use of multimedia as "information acquisition." However, coupled with a reflective activity, learners would be able to make more integrated sense of the types of portfolios available and which types would be most suited for their particular needs.

Authorstream - 3 views

    authorSTREAM is an online tool that will convert timed or narrated PowerPoint presentations to video and retain most settings applied to the original slide show. Also, the videos can be downloaded or posted to various locations online and linked to via blogs, wikis, and other Web sites. Learners can benefit from the variety of features offered such as retaining transitions and special effects to capture attention and the use of video and narration adheres to dual coding principles. By combining those features, complex material can be presented in a manner that assists learners generative cognitive load. I found this tool to be better than others given its simplicity and the fact that it retains transitions and animations. The overall quality of the output is quite good also and the use of the tool is fairly straight forward.

    Like most online tools, authorStream gives you the ability to upload your PowerPoint presentations to unique URLs for collaboration with your fellow classmates. The tool also has an option for embedding your presentations into other social networking sites. One great thing about this tool is its Free.

    This is an excellent place to download and publish the power point presentations. Also you can convert it to Video without lost the Presentation features. Easy to use and very friendly.

    authorSTREAM - authorSTREAM is a wonderful site that converts power points to share giving each presentation a unique URL that can be accessed via the internet. These presentations can be sent via email, or embedded in websites or blogs. After the presentation has been converted to video it can then be upload to sites such as You Tube. This site also allows presentations to be viewed live with the ability to discuss it live also. Most importantly to me, it is free.

    AuthorStream allows for Power Point presentations to be imported into a web-based format continuing to include animations, audio narrations, and in-slide videos , converting them into a video. It also allows users to communicate with others to receive feedback and collaborate on ideas.
  •  
    Authorstream is the hosting site for uploading and storage of PowerPoint (PPT) presentations. Participants can then download these presentations as video for editing into one seamless presentation of a mixture of PPT and video for uploading to YouTube or other video hosting site. This is initially a free site for users, but you will find it soon necessary to pay the annual Authorstream Pro fee of 30 dollars or $2.50 a month that is, if you want to convert PPT presentations to video formatting. Authorstream offers other significant options in the Pro package that helps you do plenty more with your PPT creations. This is the best suited site for supporting Microsoft PPT for it is user friendly and quite common.
  •  
    Like Google Presenter, Authorstream allows users to upload and share presentations. This can be used by instructors to assess student integration and generative learning. Authorstream allows users a public space for broad distribution and visibility of their shared presentation. This is important for students as they prepare to leave academia and enter the professional world. In addition, students can easily embed and share their presentations in blogs and other social media. Finally, Authorstream more easily integrates audio and animation when compared to other online presenting formats.

Instructional Awesomizing - 0 views

    This multimedia artifact is a blogging site that provides a multitude of technology tools, tips, tricks, presentations, and "how-to's" of implementing technology in the classroom. The author of the blog demonstrates many different aspects of technology integration through the use of videos, presentations, words, and pictures. This site is definitely a more learner-centered approach to multimedia design as it contains many different visuals and auditory captions to cognitively challenge the learner. The site does focus on a certain technologies, but it is not about the technology, but how the technology is adapted to the learners. (Mayer, 2010)
