    Fascinating example of using whiteboard graphics to animate or illustrate main points of a short lecture.  How is this strategy MORE effective than other graphic strategies?

    I really enjoyed this graphic presentation as the artist was clever and skilled. I could see exactly how it was produced. Hmmm....

    Cathy, this video is fascinating both for its content and its technique. Is this instructor such a great artist, or does he collaborate with an artist, sound editor, etc. to produce these videos? The topic reminded me of conversations I've had with friends who live in Spain. They tell me Americans are always too busy and that in Spain if you are late for an appointment no one criticizes you. They assume you had an important visit with someone along the way.

    Regarding content: Yes, interesting thoughts on the implications of culture! As an instructional designer, I begin to consider how one might design instruction for various cultural groups (In fact, that is covered in the non-COMET version of 572.) Regarding graphics: I don't know if the narrator and artist are one person. For more on the concept of instructive doodles, look for the book "The Back of the Napkin". The premise is that anyone can develop enough skill to illustrate ideas!

    This is the exact thing I need for just that reason, Lori. I got into a "debate" over this at work last week. I am SO forwarding this one to the Director of IT ;)

    Ive heard of teachers using facebook as a way to teach students how to write biographies. They start by choosing a historical figure then creating a facebook page as if they were that figure. Then they use that as an outline for their writing. cool.

    This is really helpful for me. I use photos in my classes all the time. I particularly like the Picishare site. The search results are interesting; not always what I'd expect, but a great adventure.

    This article seems to counter a lot of what we hoped: It indicates that giving computers to students may lead to lower academic performance. Hmmm. We may need to look at the methodology behind this study.
  • Jose Medrano on 18 Aug 10
     
    I agree with you Sonya. I also think that the article does not state how students are expected to use the computers. Are teachers being trained? I think more variables are needed to support the claim that technology is not "making a dent" in education. It's like giving a kid a baseball bat and expect him to hit a homerun. The kid needs coaching, preferably from someone who knows what they are talking about!

    Rachel S. Smith of New Media Consortium demonstrates how she uses an iPad to visually record presentations (think doodling!) She demonstrates narrated QT video using Brushes and iMovie. GREAT ideas for presentation development! For EDTEC572 students: I KNOW the semester is over.. But some of you will think this is really nifty :)

    There are so many online tools out now for teaching how to write. Back in my day (which wasn't that long ago) The only technology we had was turnitin.com, a plagerism website. Now, using writing software (such as an updated version of turnitin.com, students can edit each others papers, teachers can track and edit changes to student papers and more!
