Education City - 1 views

  •  
    Education City is an interactive website that helps students develop skills within Reading/Language Arts, Math, and Science classrooms. This site provides support for these subject areas by incorporating educational games and interactive lessons for teachers. Teachers can first introduce or review a concept as a whole/small group activity using their interactive whiteboards. Then, students can complete individualized activities on the website, or they can complete worksheets printed off from the site. The website correlates with state standards and is a great tool to use as a Response to Intervention (RTI) programs because it allows the teacher to track individual students' progress in each subject area. Education City is a learner-centered application because it focuses on cognitive growth of individual students by allowing teachers to differentiate instruction and provide support for special needs students.

Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling - 1 views

  •  
    Digital Storytelling is the practice of using computer-based tools to tell stories. As with traditional storytelling, most digital stories focus on a specific topic and contain a particular point of view. However, as the name implies, digital stories usually contain some mixture of computer-based images, text, recorded audio narration, video clips and/or music. Digital stories can vary in length, but most of the stories used in education typically last between two and ten minutes. And the topics that are used in Digital Storytelling range from personal tales to the recounting of historical events, from exploring life in one's own community to the search for life in other corners of the universe, and literally, everything in between. A great way to begin learning about Digital Storytelling is by watching the following video introduction to Digital Storytelling.

How to Use Clickers Effectively - 0 views

  •  
    This multimedia artifact is a video that demonstrates how to effectively use clickers in the classroom. The video takes educators through a series of steps on using the clickers to promote a higher level of engagement with students. The steps include: how to create a good question, how to foster peer discussions, wrapping up the lesson, and moving forward. I believe this video is a more learner-centered approach to multi-media design as the focus is helping educators reach a deeper level of understanding on how to create a lesson for students that just happens to use clickers as a tool for delivery. A learner-centered approach should expand our cognitive capabilities and the technology is the tool. Mayer (2009)

Google for Educators - 0 views

  •  
    For my professional development multimedia workshop, my goal is to develop a training program about using Google Apps (Google Docs, in particular). The targeted audience is a group of K-12 classroom teachers. The workshop will help to familiarize teachers with how Google Docs is used as well as provide them with an opportunity to begin developing a Google Docs that they can use in the classroom. The Google for Educators site provides a wide range of information, examples of classroom uses of Google applications, and multimedia presentations for guided learning.

Examples of Educational Wikis - 0 views

  •  
    This website has links to some great educational wikis. The abundance of educational wikis will give the masses ideas on how to use the wiki in the classroom. It is an excellent resource for integrating wikis in the classroom. Mayer states that, "learner-centered approaches begin with an understanding of how the human mind works and ask, "How can we adapt multimedia to enhance human learning? (2009, p.13)" References Mayer, R. E. (2009). Multimedia learning (2nd ed.). Cambridge, MA: Cambridge University Press.
