shared by Sara Sharick on 19 Jan 11 - Cached
  •  
    Brief description ...: This program allows the teacher to create a visual word cloud from a list of words or passages which helps to familiarize the learner with information that will be covered during the lesson or training session. As a generative process, the learners working memory is stimulated as it opens the senses for what is to come, during the presentation. Brief explanation ...: I like this site because it can be used to summarize documents like reports, speeches, and etc. into easily read word clouds. In addition, it makes important words bigger than other words.
  •  
    * Brief description of Web site: A free tool that allows users to create online word clouds from sentences, whole documents, web addresses, or tables. After completing, these word clouds can be printed out. * 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 is very user friendly because it allows users to design their own word clouds as they would like (i.e. choose their layout, choose their own colors, fonts, sizes, etc.).
  •

Explanation: This is a great tool for tool for users to create a cluster of words about a topic and use them the same way they might use a graphic.

UC Berkley's The Benefits of Making Your Applications Accessible - 0 views

    This webinar suggests 10 reasons for incorporating ADA compliance. It provides active learning based on Mayer's dual processing incorporating audio and visual channels. However, the active learning of this presentation is low. Much of the information presented contains extraneous information and this is a very long, slow-moving webcast. Even still, the information contained is useful and appropriate.

    This site is a complement to the first one as it contains a video tutorial for the visual learners. The narrator has a very casual tone of voice. He is calm and composed. He goes through the tutorial at a very comfortable pace which makes him easy to follow. The learner can pause the video at anytime to practice what they've learned

  •  
    This site boasts a 12 minute video to visually appeal to the learners to see and hear how Google apps can be implemented in the daily life of an educator. It demonstrates for the learner all of the various possibilities that Google has created to alleviate some of the time pressures teachers experience. It is for the teacher who is not aware of all that Google has to offer.

    Module 1 Multimedia-SMART Board Training Videos Smarttech-http://downloads01.smarttech.com/media/trainingcenter/flash/tutorials/display_frame_basics/display_frame_basics.htm This Smarttech video presentation is a tutorial that introduces and teaches teachers the basic steps on how to use a SMART Board. 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

    More great resources for my workshop. This short video, very simply instructs users on adding a wiki within their Bb course. The video is free of extraneous, distracting information. The audio is clear and lined up with the appropriate visual.

Blackboard Great Ideas - 4 views

    This video collection would be great for pre-training. Various instructors at Duke share their experiences with using Bb. Though the audio is a bit tinny, the interview-style videos include actual visual examples of the topics spoken about. What a great way to introduce a group of learners to Blackboard.

    This articulate video offers learners in my course two things - prelearning on best practices in use and presentation of using Wimba Classroom. Audio and visual cues segment, highlight, and clearly focus the learner on the topic. This video follow is well organized, short, easy to access, and 508 compliant.
