    interesting idea. I guess if your at a computer all day this would work. I still make my lists on a piece of paper and in the pocket it goes.

Dipity - 0 views

    Dipity is a site that makes it simple for your students to create and share interactive timelines about any subject or topic. It allows students to embed YouTube videos, RSS feeds, Blogger, flickr, Picasa, music, and more right into their timelines. Very cool application to make teaching history a bit more interesting and interactive!

      looks interesting, extremely easy to register. Dont see a benefit to educational angle

      This could be fun with irony. Students could spoof a novel or historical event. You can build your own character with a body, arms, legs, etc. Don't see anything harmful in the posting. Obviously, you are limited by the designer's characterizations.

    Great for use as a literture or reading center

      looks easy enough to use. See some photos that may raise some eyebrows in school
  •  
    this website looks like it takes the place of Imovie or Windows Movie Maker. Some of the videos or photos may not be 'x-rated' but probably arent a good idea for school
  •  
    interesting but not very educational
  •  
    Upload and edit a movie

    This site looks like a great resource for educators. You can learn from someone or teach something to others. You can also find and post learning resources. Collaboration can take place between educators. There are too many things to mention. Check out the FREE and advertisement free website.

      Three years ago, I scanned over 250 photos into my families computer to create a photo mosaic for my parent's wedding aniversary. This Web 2.0 application would have been helpful.

  • PicArtia will soon let you create Photo Mosaics out of your own photos in Flickr
  • like poster in your room
    • Daniel Lynch
       
      It's free, but if you want the higher quality pictures, it will cost some money.
  • First of all thanks for visiting PicArtia. Due to requests from our users, we would like to point out a few hints for having a better experience with PicArtia:
    • Daniel Lynch
       
      This site would be interesting to use in a geometry in high school or an art class to explore shapes, shades, and contrasting images. As a math teacher, this would be a creative approach to learning.
  • "Kim Komando" selected us as the "cool site of the day" on 5/9/2008:
    • Daniel Lynch
       
      If Kim Komando says it's cool, I believe her!
  •  
    This website could be used in a geometry class, or an art class. This could be one activity that you could easily relate to geometry content, perhaps replacing the age-old project of stellated dodecahedrons.
  •  
    PicArtia is an online application that gives you the opportunity to create your own photo mosaics for free. You can use your own photos or download others from the web. PicArtia is free to use, however you can order high quality versions as well. HIgh quality prints start at $3. Cons: Still in the works, will soon have the opportunity to create photo mosaics out of your own photos in Flickr/PhotoBucket or your hard drive, but not yet

HotChalk - 0 views

  •  
    HotChalk is a collaborative online resource for preK-12 teachers, students and parents. It provides an easy-to-use learning management system accessible by any Internet browser, a media-rich library of teacher-contributed lesson plans and digital content, including audio, video, textbook, and assessment content as well as online professional development for teachers.
  •  
    I found this an interesting web application. Please Note: HotChalk's online tools and community content are free, but their premium content like NBC News video and McGraw-Hill Education's professional development courses require a paid subscription. They do give you a free trial. Another note: HotChalk covers all preK-12 subjects, including Math, Science, Music, Language Arts, Computers & Internet, Social Studies, Art and Physical Education. Their mission is to improve the lives of teachers.... I have to agree with that goal...
