    Survey monkey can be used for more then just the occasional 'what do you think'. Use it for both pre and post testing in edtech.

    Educational workshops typically ask participants to rate the experience. An easy way for this to be done digitally and anonymously is through the free Basic Plan feature in surveymonkey.com.

    Survey Monkey is an excellent FREE tool to develop and monitor progress and assessments of participants. This resource is used frequently in my school district, where results and participation can be easily monitored.
  • Angela Finley on 18 Jul 10
     
    On this site, users are able to create quick questionnaires in which data may be collected and analyzed online. The user provides the questions, and the program does the rest. I chose this site because of its ease of use. Additionally, the disaggregation of data and the creation of charts of graphs would be beneficial to the overall success of the workshop.
  • Jesus Berrios on 19 Jul 10
     
    In my experience, all workshops/PD end with an assessment questionairre that asks participants to give feedback. SurveyMonkey.com digitizes the data collection and evaluation processes. In addition to its intended purpose, it represents as another educational technology application.

    This is an online site to design surveys. I can use this to gauge what participants are learning and what questions they may have after each module. I would also use it as a tool to critique the whole workshop. This site would give me a chance to evaluate the material as well as the participant's knowledge acquisition.

    Survey monkey is an online survey site that will allow for trainers and participants to determine where the current state of knowledge is on a given topic. Participants could be given the survey the week before the training which would allow the presenter to modify instruction and content if needed. I chose survey monkey over other online survey providers because of its always free basic package. Most other sites offered a limited free trial. http://www.surveymonkey.com/
  • Heather Rogers on 12 Jul 12
     
    Survey Monkey is a multimedia tool online that allows users to create custom surveys in minutes. Based on what you create, all the results of the survey participants will be delivered to you. Surveys can contain answer choices, open ended answers, or both. It is free to use and saves time on the creation of surveys.

    Mind42 is a browser based online mind mapping application. With Mind42 mindmapping tools are no longer needed, you can manage ideas alone, or work collaboratively
  • Shane Snyder on 11 Oct 10
     
    The mind42 site offers a free online tool for creating graphic organizers / mind maps similar to those created by webspiration. However, mind42 provides excellent file export functionality saving as .jpg, .png, .pdf, and other file formats. Also of interest are collapsible / expandable branches that could facilitate a gradual introduction of topics in a live lesson, as well as the ability to include notes, Web links, and a variety of icons in each node as needed. Of note, however, is the ability to include images directly into the graphic organizer by searching for relevant images online or by providing a direct link to an online image. Some basic formatting options, such as text color and size, are present. However, as all nodes other than the parent or central node are lines, no formatting of shapes is available. The tool does offer a simple approach to creating mind maps and graphic organizers, which may warrant additional investigation and use. In short, the saving functionality, branching without termination nodes (use a line instead), collapsibility, and image inclusion are features that may prove more useful than comparable tools. Considering essential cognitive processing, the tool may assist with selecting and organizing complex material in order to reach a generative processing state. This may be possible by presenting information in a keyed and organized approach, which is a central premise of most mind mapping software.
  • Marie Anglin on 13 Jan 14
     
    Mind42 is an online mind map that allows users to add images to their brainstorming and collaborate with others. Users have access to a gallery of mind maps and can post comments. This site can be used for essesntial learning based on its multimedia capabilities. Mind42 is a better website than other mind maps that I have reviewd because of the extra support provided through the gallery of mind maps.

You- Tube Blogging in the Elementary Classroom http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySpKh5GJ3nY This vidoe shows parents, teachers,and students talking about how they use blogs in their classroom.

    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.

    Holt Interactive Graphic Organizers This site has pre-made graphic organizers that students can fill in. There are different organizers for different types of brainstorming. This site would be best for lower elementary school students or for students who need more assistance (EIP or Sp. Ed.) The PDF document is easy to download and add text to the sections of the organizer. This site also allows for printing a hard copy or the ability to save the filled in GO to be shared later.

    I chose this site because of its ease of use and the ability to type information right into the PDF template. The different organizers could be used by the participants themselves throughout the workshop. Each graphic organizer also provides tips on how to use the organizers in class.
  • Stephen Raymond on 13 Apr 11

    I chose this site because of the number of options that are made available on there and the fact that the templates are in editable pdf format. The templates are categorized by purpose and are accompanied with tutorials and lecture notes. You can actually download them and start typing. Great resource!

    This site is a source for graphic organizers. It allows students/teaches to visually organize data in ways that make sense to them. This site if better than other because it offer several free organizers.

    * Brief description of Web site: A free tool that offers various types of graphic organizers in PDF form that can be typed into and printed out. Each graphic organizer includes teaching notes with lessons and tips on how to use the graphic organizers in the classroom. * Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found: Besides the fact that this is a free resource, it offers an array of graphic organizers for users to use. Users can either type necessary content into the organizer and then print it out, or simply print it out first.

    * Brief Description: A variety of different graphic organizers that have already been created and are organized by purpose.  The graphic organizers can be downloaded with the feature to add text to enter in your own information to be saved for later use and printed.   * Brief Explanation: The graphic organizers all have a very clean design without extraneous information.   I also really like the feature that you can type directly into the graphic organizers.

    Brief description of what it allows you to do and how it can be used for essential or generative learning: Animoto is a great presentation site for people like myself who aren't creatively inclined. It is easy to use and allows the user not to feel overwhelmed. The site incorporates text, visuals (pictures or videos), and sound. This meets generative learning. Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found (e.g., more effective, creates better products, easier to use, and so on): Easy and not time consuming to use. The product looks very professional.

    You can upload photographs (even powerpoints saved as jpegs or gifs) to create a movie of your own. Just add music to further engage your audience. Engaging with the power of a video with music. Easy to use.

    This website allows you to upload photos and record narration. A great way to explain a vision by more than just a picture but telling exactly how you recall it. This can be used as a storyboard for my participants of my workshop in their pre-training activity.

    This video includes closed captioning with audio and video, allowing the learner to experience how a screen reader works and sounds, again following Mayer's dual channel theory, fostering meaningful learning through lecture and example. Understanding how a screen reader works and sounds provides instructors with a deeper understanding of the challenges those with sight impairments must overcome in learning online content. This allows instructors to create content, providing more effective knowledge transfer through this technology.
