    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.

ZOHO Show - 1 views

  •  
    This site works well for helping you to create material for essential or generative learning, because you can develop the content of your presentations onlime and make changes as necessary to fit the learning needs of your participants. The zoho show features are very similiar to those of PowerPoint, it is great for when you may not have access to PowerPoint.

    This site is more for generative learning because it allows you to be able to give concrete examples of how iLife applications can be used in various content areas. I fould it better because there are lots of concrete examples given by a community of educators across grade levels and subject areas.

Using IPhoto in the classroom - 0 views

  •  
    This site focuses specifically on how to use IPhoto as a classroom tool. This source seems to use a combination of cognitive and behavioral activities. I believe this site uses a more learner centered approach. It gives visuals as well as reading to help the learner to understand concepts. I believe they are meeting a goal of the learner centered approach, aiding in human cognition (Mayor, 2009).

Meyers-Letson, B. (2006), Using Garage Band in the Classroom - 0 views

  •  
    This site created by Meyers is a very interactive site for learning about how Garage Band can be used in the classroom. This site provides a great amount of hands on examples to show how this program is a useful tool in the classroom. Mayer lets us know that a major focus of the technology centered approach is "using multimedia technology as aid to human cognition (2009, 13)." I believe that this site does that with all the examples and tutorials provided. Mayer, R. E. (2009). Multimedia learning (2nd ed.). Cambridge, MA: Cambridge University Press.

ILife in the Classroom, University of Stevenson - 0 views

  •  
    This site was used as a guide to help educators learn about how ILife can be useful in the classroom. The way information is presented requires more cognitive activity than behavioral. The site seems to be more technology centered, because it focuses more on the technology itself. As Mayer (2009) suggests the this approach focuses more on the capabilities of the technology.
