The video uses a learner-centered approach to technology because according to Mayer, it does "compliment human abilities, aid activities that we are poorly suited and enhances the development for which we are ideally suited" (Mayer, 2009, p. 13)." The required active engagement for this video is cognitive because the focus in the video is on the meaning of the presented material and interprets it in light of prior knowledge, YouTube-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hlgGpVpgWo YouTube provides a video presentation on a "SMART Board Interactive White Board Accessibilities." This video presentation provides teachers with information on how to make the SMART Board accessible to all students.

    The three web sites that I selected that include multimedia artifacts for active learning: 1) http://www.learner.org/ The learner.org website is a cognitive activity. This web site accomplishes the learner-centered approach. The web site focuses on using multimedia technology as an aid to human cognition (Mayer, p. 13 2009). It uses film clips to demonstrate the practical applications of various mathematical concepts to real life situations. It builds a connection of what the students are studying to a concrete example (visual) to create a clearer mental picture form prior knowledge to new knowledge that is being discovered. 2) http://pearsonmylabandmastering.com/ The My Lab web site is a behavioral activity. This web site accomplishes the learner-centered approach. The web site focuses on rewarding students for the correct responses (excellent) or punished for the incorrect ones (try again). The underlying metaphor is that of drill-and-practice system, so multimedia is a vehicle for rewarding correct responses and punishing incorrect ones (Mayer, p.15, 2009). A student receives immediate feedback positive or negative and strengthens a response system to proceed or provide reinforcement of the content. 3) http://webgraphing.com/ The web graphing web site is a cognitive activity. This web site accomplishes the learner-centered approach. The web site provides engagement between the student and the graphing calculator. Multimedia learning is a sense-making activity in which the learner seeks to build a coherent mental representation from the presented material (Mayer, p. 17, 2009). The students actively engage with the graphing calculator along with the teacher

Graphic Organizers:SmartDraw - 0 views

  •  
    SmartDraw offers a free Graphic Organizer Tool that allows users to edit graphic organizers. This resource is available as a free download, initially. This is a useful resource because it promotes essential learning by allowing users to organize their thoughts. It can also promote generative learning as users manipulate the graphic organizers to illustrate their understanding of specific topics. I chose this resource because it allows users to easily edit the graphic organizers.

Voki Home - 0 views

    Voki can be used for pretraining. Students can create avartars and record their own voices delivering speeches. It promotes essential learning because it can be used to introduce important concepts before a lesson begins. I chose this site because it allowed users to overlay their voices, and it is a reputable site.
  •  
    Voki is a great website that allows users to create speaking avatars. It provides a variety of different avatars that can be selected, including historical figures. You can add speech using typed text, recorded voice or your cell phone. This would be great if you had limited access to a microphone or other recording hardware. Voki also provides users with the ability to change the voice that is speaking. For teachers, it provides lesson plan ideas incorporating Voki. Voki Classroom allows teachers to set up accounts for their student without requiring an email address, which is a great feature for elementary aged students.

    Turns anything you want inot visually stunning tag cloud, words individually sized appropriately to highlight the frequencies of occurrence within the body of text. This was a great site, gave many options to upload from, also had gallery to choose the orientation of your word cloud. My participants can use this as a visual along with their videos they create.
  •  
    Tagxedo is a site that creates word clouds from user inputs. The site will convert a block of text to a word cloud, which can be transformed into a variety of shapes. Words that occur more frequently appear larger in the cloud. Teachers can use this for pre-training to present key terms. Based on the size of the words, learners can determine the key terms for the content they are learning, as well as important words associated with those key terms. The teacher can manipulate the text to place emphasis on the words of their choice. A feature of Tagxedo that distinguishes it from other sites is the feature that allows the user to upload an image and form the word cloud using she shape of that image. A teacher could use this possibility to further emphasize an important key term or concept. This site can be used for essential learning by providing learners with knowledge of key terms prior to the lesson, freeing important space in working memory for the processing of other information.
  •  
    * Tagxedo is a great way to make "word clouds" from websites and different social networks in real-time by customizing the font, theme, color, orientation, and shape. Tagxedo is an excellent resource to use when introducing new content material, because of the ability to use Internet web addresses and other media that can be added to the word cloud.
    * I found Tagxedo to be better than other "word cloud" websites because it is effective at using paragraphs of text to highlight key vocabulary and has many options to create a better-finished product that can be transferred to other mediums.

    280 Slides is a site that allows users to create presentations similar to a PowerPoint. In fact, if a PowerPoint show has already been created, it can be uploaded to the site. This tool could be used by workshop participants as they collaborate to create a brief presentation about a concept discussed in the workshop. The fact that this tool is so similar to PowerPoint was a big plus, in addition to the fact that, unlike PowerPoint, when the 280 Slide presentation is completed, it can be easily shared to the Web.
  •  
    I chose this site because of its ease of use and its numerous relevant features that allow me to create beautiful presentations, store them online for free, and access them from any computer that is connected to the internet
