booklet online web2.0Tools school teachers project

shared by Allison Burrell on 03 Mar 11 - No Cached

    I'm excited about the possibilities this site might have for our school, especially as we're trying to be "greener" in our project choices. The booklets seem very simple to create (you're able to add images, files, backgrounds, text, video, embed code, webpages, music and your own code), are saved in the cloud, and can be published in MANY different ways, all without having to print a single sheet of paper! (actually the print function isn't available yet, but they're working on it.) For students: "Create reports, project portfolios, presentations, book reviews, papers, and more. Leverage your expertise with Internet technologies by adding multiple content elements to your project. Your teacher will appreciate the dynamic and engaging experience." For teachers: "Engage students with class newsletters, creative writing exercises, and school projects using simplebooklet. No more lost reports or "I'm almost done" excuses. A simplebooklet is stored in the cloud so you can always find it, even the half completed ones. Simplebooklet is based on the middlespot architecture, so authoring a booklet is a snap. Simple add tools allow a student to quickly upload almost anything to their booklet page. Then drag and drop tools allow for easy formatting and styling. Since each element is saved as a separately, no single element will take down the entire booklet."

    We couldn't hear the question in the back of the packed Oglethorpe County Commission chamber, but whatever it was, it got a big laugh. According to an outraged commenter on the article, the question was, when is someone going to shoot Obama?

Life on the Screen: Visual Literacy in Education | Edutopia - 26 views

  • When people talk to me about the digital divide, I think of it not being so much about who has access to what technology as who knows how to create and express themselves in this new language of the screen. If students aren't taught the language of sound and images, shouldn't they be considered as illiterate as if they left college without being able to read or write?
  • But there are rules for telling a story visually that are just as important as grammatical rules or math terms, and you can test people on them as well. There is grammar in film, there is grammar in graphics, there is grammar in music, just like there are rules in math that can be taught. For instance, what emotion does the color red convey? What about blue? What does a straight line mean? How about a diagonal line?
  • If you're going to put together a multimedia project, you need to know that you can't have a fast rhythm track if you're talking about death. It just doesn't work. You're not communicating well.

  • All these forms of communication are extremely important, and they should be treated that way. Unfortunately, we've moved away from teaching the emotional forms of communication. But if you want to get along in this world, you need to have a heightened sense of emotional intelligence, which is the equal of your intellectual intelligence.
  • You're already seeing it. You often see very educated people -- doctors and lawyers and engineers -- trying to make presentations, and they have no clue about how to communicate visually and what happens when you put one image after another. So their lectures become very confused because, from a visual perspective, they're putting their periods at the front of their sentences, and nobody understands them.
  • The education world, it seems, thrives on stability and limiting change. There seem to be an awful lot of people protecting the status quo.

    San Francisco - CEO Microsoft, Steve Ballmer confirmed it will launch Windows 8 in 2012. This was later denied by Microsoft officials. "There seems to be a false statement. We welcome the latest generation of Windows 7 which will come in the next year," wrote Microsoft, told ZDNet (5/29/2011). "In the meantime, we have not issued a formal announcement linked the name and time of arrival of Windows next generation," he added. Ballmer also use the 'Windows 8 ' operating system. "You will hear a lot about Windows 8, whether it is tablet, PC or other variations," said Ballmer. Microsoft reportedly ready to bring the tablet version of the Windows operating system next week, in an event. Microsoft does not comment on rumors. Especially after other newspapers said, the OS for the tablet will be holding a Tegra microprocessor.

    The popularity of social media sites among today's youth means that they have become the default communication tools for a new generation of children looking to communicate with the world around them. But is it appropriate for teachers to friend their students? Of course it isn't.

    Poetry provides students with power. The power to express their feelings, their point of view, demonstrate creativity, share their hopes & dreams, provide opinions, etc. Writing poetry can prove to be very motivational for students and less intimidating for some, as it allows them the freedom to "break" some of the writing rules. This project is meant to allow students to harness their power and share it with the world.

    Hypothes.is will be a distributed, open-source platform for the collaborative evaluation of information. It will enable sentence-level critique of written words combined with a sophisticated yet easy-to-use model of community peer-review. It will work as an overlay on top of any stable content, including news, blogs, scientific articles, books, terms of service, ballot initiatives, legislation and regulations, software code and more-without requiring participation of the underlying site.

    High blood pressure is something that affects almost all of us. It is also known as hypertension. It is referred to as a silent killer due to the fact that its symptoms are invisible until it had caused a serious damage to the heart.
