  • ong declared dead in some circles, feed readers remain an outstanding way for students to self-select fresh new content about whatever they’re interested in.  I strongly believe that we should spend time helping our secondary students to set up a feed reader (such as Google Reader or Apple’s Reeder).  Once that is complete, in-class time should be spent helping students subscribe to each other’s blogs (if applicable) and to other blogs in content areas they find interesting. 
  • Voila!  In as little as two class periods, you can help students to create their own free, individualized collection of reading material, delivered directly to them as soon as more content is published, which will never run out.  Research has shown that students with more access to good reading material in their homes tend to attain higher levels of education in their own lives.

    A blog post from August 20, 2012 that discusses the value of RSS feeds for providing a never ending source of reading material based on interests and enjoyment. In a very short time, students can create their own free, individualized collections of reading material.  That kind of access contributes to many students achieving a higher level of knowledge than would have be possible otherwise. Another side effect of using RSS feeds is that students might be encouraged to write more blog posts themselves, and interact with other students' posts.

  • urthermore, teachers can create a free teacher account through which they can create student accounts.  Diigo’s student accounts require no email address, can be kept private, and can also be grouped so that students can share resources they find with each other. Diigo is more than just a social bookmarking tool.  It is a powerful research tool and a knowledge sharing community for teachers and students.

  • The site’s text blocks have a limited number of characters so students must write concisely and succinctly.
  • The visual, audio, and textual elements in producing the videos help students produce visual messages and strengthen visual literacy skills.
  • ocabulary study tool. First she created a private Google Group for her students. After each student is assigned a vocabulary word, they locate pictures on the Internet that represents their word.

  • With a little experience, making an Animoto shouldn’t take much more than 15 minutes. Oftentimes, loading the pictures takes longer than creating the video.
  • Get out the digital camera and start taking pictures.
  • This past week, students at one of the schools where I work were transferring their poems to the sidewalks surrounding the school with sidewalk chalk. It is a great activity, and we decided to make a video with the pictures that were taken. This video took about 20 minutes to make.
