    * Makes Sense Strategies creates SMARTSheets™ that are research based visual teaching tools or graphic organizers on steroids! The SMARTSheets™ are specialized, discipline specific graphic organizers that can be tailored individually to each student to address Common Core State Standards and enhance highly engaging strategic instruction.
    * I found Makes Sense Strategies to be better than other graphic organizer websites because it provides a research-based tool of resources to assist teachers with the implementation of the Common Core State Standards. The plethora of resources for K-12 teachers of all subject areas is a bonus few other graphic organizer websites have.

Screenr for pre-training - 1 views

  •  
    Screenr allows the user to record a five minute video. The benefit of the time limit of five minutes is that you have to be concise in your video creation. The overall screencasting experience is beneficial because if you are having individuals involved in the process of a common project (e.g. creating a blog or a Facebook group) everyone can get the same instruction and be ready to move on to the main portion of the project.
  •  
    Screenr allows users to create screencasts to share their knowledge. Features of screenr allow users to record directly on their Mac or PC without installing or downloading software. Once the screencast is made, it can be embedded on sites and blogs. One way that screenr supports essential learning is by addressing the modality and multimedia principles. Screenr seems to be more effective for creating tutorials.

MindMeister - 0 views

  •  
    This online mind mapping software allows mobile access. Mindmeister allows real-time brainstorming and offline mode. Offline work is synced to online maps when you go back online
  • ...7 more comments...
  •  
    “Assignment #3 Mindmeister's mind maps can be used in a collaborative environment where ideas can be shared. When two or more users collaborate on the same map in real-time, all changes are replicated in a color-coded format so that everyone can see updates instantaneously. Mindmeister comes with several pricing plans from the basic, free plan to a premium plan with enhanced security.
  •  
    This site also allows you to create mind maps. I like this site because it easily allows you to move ideas around by a simple click. It also allows you to easily add links to the mind map as well as images and attachments. Using this site makes it easy to share mind maps with others and collaborate.
  •  
    I've never used mindmeister, but I love the addition of the larger graphics. Larger graphics offers variety and improves users ability to visually differentiate items. Graphic organizers offer a unique way to introduce topics without overwhelming learners. Interesting graphics and text create visual interest for prelearning. I've only used Freemind for mindmap projects with school, and their graphics are small in relation.
  •  
    Mind Meister is an excellent cloud based tool that creates collaborative mind maps. This tool is excellent for team use because multiple people can create and edit the tool simultaneously. The team can also create project timelines with deadlines sent to their favorite calendaring tools.
  •  
    Explanation: Allows users to create a graphic organizer with a web-based tool requiring no download. Easy-to-use and results are good quality. Reasoning: Since this site is web-based, it makes using it very easy and accessible to anyone regardless of their operating system. In addition, creation of the graphic organizer is straightforward and requires little support. Also, the resulting graphic is embeddable.
  •  
    Mindmeister is one of the first, and still one of the best, online mind-mapping tools. Mindmaps can be used for generative learning as they invite the student to integrate information previously learned in a visual and connected way. Mindmeister is a good tool for this as it is available across iOS and Android. Additionally, it exports web maps into the .mm format which open natively in the free Freemind application for offline viewing and creation.
  •  
    MindMeister is a widely used mind-mapping program that is also linked to its mobile app, for access on the go. I chose this program based on the simplistic design and ease of use. Anyone can access MindMeister and immediately use the program for graphic organization.
  •  
    * MindMeister is an online mind mapping and brainstorming website used to create multiple kinds of graphic organizers. The template library provides many different kinds of examples that provide curriculum activities for essential or generative learning including prioritizing information, extending understanding of important concepts, project planning, drawing conclusions, making connections to other ideas, and making inferences.
    * I found MindMeister to be better than other online graphic organizer websites due to the ease of use, variety of templates available, and it is free to create up to three maps at a time.
  •  
    o Mindmeister is a mind mapping and online collaboration tool that allows learners to organize their thoughts by creating mind maps. A group of learners can collaborate on a single mind map to come up with a final product, and they can do so in real time. They can add text, graphics, links, notes, etc. to fully develop and present their ideas. In addition, learners can save final product in various formats to embed them in their projects. The interaction learners have with the content to organize it into a visual representation (as supported by Mindmeister) is the perfect example of generative processing or using cognitive processes to make sense of the material (Mayer, 2009). For English Language Learners, this tool allows learners to show what they understand even when they may not have enough English to write a paper on a particular concept/topic. o The site is easy to use and creates a clean and organized product. Some mapping programs can yield such complex products that are very hard to follow. In addition, I enjoy the ability to work offline because teachers and students alike might not always have internet handy. Finally, this is one of the few programs available not only for pc, but also for mobile and tablet.

Morguefile - 0 views

  •  
    o Morguefile provides royalty free still images for use in media presentations. Mayer (2009) highlighted the importance of the multimedia principle explaining that individuals learn better from words and picture than words along. With pictures and text learners can make greater connections, and most importantly transfer (Mayer, 2009). o It is amazing that this site still has FREE pictures. Places like Shutterstock are extremely expensive, and even the more affordable sites like Dollarphotoclub and Dreamstime can add up as one selects pictures.

AJET 21(3) Kiili (2005) - participatory multimedia learning: Engaging learners - 0 views

  • Further, the multimedia learning layer of the model has to be revisited and extended. In fact, the focus of the future research will be on studying the usefulness of haptic technology in multimedia learning environments. The use of haptic technology can simulate cutaneous and kinesthetic sensations so that learning materials not only look but also feel (McGee, 2002) and may provide a means to reduce external cognitive load in visually and auditorily demanding learning materials (M�nch & Dillmann, 1997). Thus, I want to propose that in the future we should consider supplementing the multimedia learning layer with the haptic channel in order to be able to design more effective, engaging, and realistic learning materials

Mrs. Pearce's Classrom Website - 0 views

  •  
    "Mrs. Pearce's Classroom Website" is a website that offers many research-based ideas that will assist teachers in creating more successful literacy work stations. The website includes many words and pictures, which is promoting learning. The website is learner-centered due to the fact that it is aiding human cognition with the graphics and words included. Although the website is not very interactive, it does offer many examples which teachers can use to build on prior knowledge and their own experiences. This website is an example of multimedia instruction, pictures and words meant to foster learning (Mayer, 2009, p. 5).

    I love this website.

    Xtranormal is a website that allows individuals to make a movie just by texting. Xtranormal will be a used to present the objectives of the presentation. The animation will allow the learners to view a visual with audio/text (present two types of learning).
  •  
    Assignment, Module 3 - Xtranormal.com is a web-based presentation tool that allows the user to create a movie from text.  The site claims that, "if you can type, you can make movies."  Users are provided with 3D characters that are brought to life through adding content to their voices.  It uses a drag-and-drop animation system of editing.  Another advantage is you can follow this site from FaceBook or on Twitter.  One disadvantage is the recommended configuration is limited to Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista.
  •  
    Xtranormal was one of the featured websites in the programs for Module 3. It is a very easy to use website to create videos. I used it to create the directions for the pre-training activity. In order to create a video you simply type in your script, select your character, background, camera angles, and character movements. This text to speech website is an example of generative learning because it simplifies the expectations for the participants.
  •  
    For the presentation section of the workshop, the instructor could use text and create an animation using avitars to make the lesson interesting to the learners.
  •  
    Brief description of what it allows you to do and how it can be used for essential or generative learning: Allows you to create an animation presentation by inputting a script with directional movements. This can be used as an introduction tool of a segment presentation. It provides a visual animation with sound and text possibilities. 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): It can be limiting using the free version, but awesome for foreign languages. My students loved it and could make their presentations unique and creative.
  •  
    Xtranormal is a movie-making tool that allows the user to create movies with little experience. It permits prerecorded features as well as user inventive frames. Using this tool in my presentations will move my students to a deeper understanding beyond PowerPoint presentations.
  •  
    Just as with Go Animate, Xtranormal is applicable to the essential and generative learning processes. Xtranormal allows a user to organize and integrate what he/she has learned into a short animated cartoon. Xtranormal allows users to create fully animated video cartoons to represent learned materials. Videos on Xtranormal are easily created, stored, and shared.
  •  
    This site allows you to create short animated videos about any content. These videos allow information to be relayed in a different way. This multimedia tool is user friendly and can be used with any topic. 
  •  
    This website allows you to choose an avatar and design a 3D animated presentation of the text provided. This will be a great added feature to add visuals to what I have to share for my presentation. In my classroom, this multimedia tool would inspire student creativity, meet student learning needs who may be uncomfortable speaking in front of others.
  •  
    You can use this site to make animated movies of your presentation.
