In this Prezi, Pappas (2011) has designed a presentation that prompts the viewer to think about the reflective culture of a school. Coupled with the content in Pappas' (2010, January) blog series, "A Taxonomy of Reflection: Critical Thinking for Students, Teachers and Principals," a learner-centered orientation to the process and importance of reflection in schools and learning is achieved. Embedded in the presentation itself are prompts to gain viewers' attention and provide opportunities to consider questions relevant to the content. As noted by Mayer (Laureate Education, 2010), the effectiveness of a technology is based on its application, guided by instructional method. While Prezi is receiving a lot of enthusiasm as an alternative to Power Point, effective use of this tool still relies on the designers' ability to create content that will effectively promote learning.

This system allows schools to purchase a pre-loaded system with educational content already included. The system can also assist teachers in developing multimedia lesson plans for sharing, upload original content and share with the school community, manage live streams of digital TV , video cameras and internet, manage devices for the classroom and the school and engage students in desktop videoconferencing.

What it does: This has a wealth of resources to learn "how to" do a number of tasks. Why this one? In providing pre-training for certain tasks, why re-invent the wheel? Why create a new "how to use xyz" when that video probably already exists on Teachertube. Youtube is also an option, but I prefer Teachertube since it is more teacher/education oriented. Consequently, the content, flow, and logic may be more educationally sound than the general public who posts on YouTube. Learning benefit: For essential learning, learners have a large database of short training sessions and can learn many essential basics for pre-training needs.

Teacher Tube is a online sharing site that hosts video, photographs, documents and audio files that cater to an educational environment. The format is much like You Tube. Files can be easily shared/embedded on a variety of sites. Once you investigate these resources for the content and quality that you are searching, they prove to be a great way to promote essential learning. I chose this site because, like You Tube, there are some high quality videos available. Rather than reinventing the wheel, the busy educator has ready-made resources at his/her fingertips. You Tube is blocked in my school organization so Teacher Tube is a comparable resources and it is controlled for inappropriate language and controlled for inappropriate language and content.

This site is a great resource for teachers and students alike. It is a safe and reliable site that provides educational videos that are appropriate for students of all ages. The site is a safe alternative to Youtube but it is not as well known among the student population. I would recommend this site to teachers in my workshop to upload videos of completed dance projects. It is also a great place for students to make comments.

Additionally, it is a site where teachers can post videos designed for students to view in order to learn a concept or skill. * Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found: This site is better than YouTube because it is strictly for educational purposes. Besides the fact that it is a free resources, users are able to view videos or upload videos to it.

TeacherTube is a video sharing website with the same features as YouTube, but for educators. Unfortunately, in many school districts by content filtering systems, YouTube has been blocked due to some of the content that can be accessed on the site. TeacherTube allows educators and students the ability to access various educational videos, documents, blogs, groups, photos, and audio to utilize and share in the classroom while at school. Many of these educational resources can be used as pre-training materials to a workshop, such as with my workshop on storytelling; I would show a short video about what PBL means as a means to introduce participants to the concept and to explain that they will be using PBL to design their own storytelling lesson. TeacherTube is much easier to access while at school than YouTube, which is why I feel TeacherTube is a better working tool for educators to use rather than attempting to access YouTube videos.

These resources and training materials will be very helpful for individuals beginning to use interwrite workspace. I especially like the beginning videos found at http://www.einstruction.com/support_downloads/training/workspace.html# These are the most applicable videos to my school system and the 21st century classrooms that we currently have. I chose to use the interwrite technology because this is what we use in my school system.

What it does: Allows teachers to create a simple cartoon strip. Why this one: It is free and easy to use. It provides templates from which to choose. I see a great benefit in that teachers can quickly create a dozen of these messages in the same time it would take to create just 1 video message. Therefore, time and practicality are key benefits. As mentioned above, I have tried to maintain 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. Learning benefits: I see this more for generative learning. Role playing, "what if" scenarios, and thought-provoking situations can be presented by the teachers.

ToonDoo is a website that allows students to create cartoons, books, characters, or doodles about any topic. It would be a great way for students to present information they have learned or demonstrate comprehension in a non-traditional way.

This is a tool which can be used for digital storytelling. It is technology centered although its use is learner centered. I incorporated the use of this tool with students from another school to retell parables with a 21st century twist in the middle school curriculum of the private Christian school at which I taught.

This site is an article that shows educators why technology should be incorporated into the classroom. It is very clear in detailing the following concepts: * Support thinking processes * Stimulate motivation and self esteem * Promote equity * Prepare students for the future * Support changes in school structure * Explore technology capabilities This is a great way to get their minds in the right place to embrace the use of technology and encourage them to explore and create their own.

Twiducate is a safer, more school-friendly version of Twitter. It is used in much the same way as Twitter in terms of status updates and the uploading of pictures and videos, but the content is much more controlled. Twiducate can be used to stay in contact with workshop participants and students, providing them with a forum for asking questions and getting updates on the workshop or class. This site will meet the need to communicate that workshop participants and students have while keeping them from having to deal with the negative content often found on Twitter.

This site provides the tools for you to build up an argument or description of an event, person or historical period by placing items in a virtual box. You can display anything from a text file to a movie. You can also view and comment on the museum boxes submitted by others. MuseumBox is a cross curricular tool useful in areas of the curriculum where students have to assess, investigate or debate issues and explore and develop ideas. In addition it provides an excellent opportunity for integrating ICT into the curriculum. Not only is this site really original in its concept and organization, but it allows teachers to approve, reject, and edit student projects. If a box is approved, it will go live on the DiscoveryBox website within your school or organization's area. The author of the box will be also able to reload the box in the box creator. You may send a message to the user who created it if you choose this option. If a box is rejected, it will be returned to the author with any message. The author will be able to load the box and make changes, or do any further work on it. You can edit the box and make changes to the text and the audio attachments if necessary.
