Like movie trailers, only about books. A fun way to excite elementary school students to read more.

During Macworld 2009, with the generous support of the Apple University Consortium (AUC) in Australia and Computer-Using Educators Inc. (CUE) in the US, we will be bringing you a series of podcast, and occasionally vodcast, episodes seeking to distill the educational wisdom arising from this massive expo.

The San Jose Digital Media Course is a unique course designed for educators to experience 21st Century Learning in a real world setting. Participants work collaboratively to create vodcasts (video podcasts) of art exhibits from the San Jose Museum of Art.

Nice newcomer to the sharing and video scene. Eduslam is recording short, quick videos that can be implemented in your classroom tomorrow. Very cool.

Some cool science teachers at necc who have "flipped the classroom" -- they record their lectures and make them available on itunes to download. Then, they do "homework" in class w/ the teachers. Listening to the podcast of class is their assignment -- the homework is what they do in class. This flipped method had some people talking today in our workshop. So so cool! This makes so much sense -- take the one to many work delivery and make it the assignment -- take the work where you need many to many to help one another and have that in the classroom. Can you see class evolving? wow! This makes so much sense.

Use of podcasting to "flip" the classroom experienc.e Lectures are assignments to listen to on the podcast -- homework is the classwork now so teachers can help the students one on one. How much sense does that make! Wow!

Karl Fisch's blog post on Algebra and homework. He's looking at moving to a lecture for homework approach.
