    This site allows you to easy create 30 sec clips from uploaded images and record from your cell phone. I like this site because it allows people to create audio even if they do not have access to audio equipment for their computers. The short clips can easily be shared among classmates.

    This site allows you create mind maps. It easily allows you to branch out your ideas. I like this site because it is easy to use, you simply click an existing bubble and it creates a new branch. It is also very easy to change the font and the color of the bubbles.

Blabberize - 2 views

  •  
    This website was chosen to show how to use technology to do brief classroom presentations. Part of the workshop will include an example of a blabberized topic and then teachers will navigate the site to see how simple it is. Showing an example and then allowing them to navigate the site to get a more personal experience promotes "active learning- because meaningful learning outcomes occur as a result of the learner's activity during learning."(p. 21)

blogs - 0 views

  •  
    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.

Wikispaces - 3 views

  •  
    This website was chosen to demonstrate the usefulness of wikis in the classroom. This website is learner-centered where, "the focus is on using multimedia technology to aid to human cognition." (Mayer, 2009, p. 13) Using this website, workshop participants can see how easy it is to create a wiki page for them and for their students to create. Mayer considers behavioral activity to be hands-on. Since this website will be used for hands -on activity, creating a wikispace, this website should be considered behavioral.
