      I like the organization of this ning - integrating google docs, videos, poll daddy etc
  •  
    We have a couple of poll plugins installed which we were planning on using at some point. I think initially we want to keep the ning as streamlined as possible, as to not overwhelm newcomers, but eventually we can add more of this type of content.

E-Learning Journeys: A Vision for a School Library - 1 views

  •  
    We need to analyse and come to a better understanding of the impact of technology, and in particular our 1:1 implementation in the Secondary School, on students and their media habits. Asking students to be using books more may not be the answer, and in fact may be a reactionary approach. Maybe we need to reduce the number of books on shelves to provide room for better designed spaces e.g. 'sound-proofed' smaller areas where 4-5 people can plug a laptop into a large flat screen and collaborate over research or other online/multimedia task Maybe we need to set up podcasting stations and higher-end computers for enhanced video work in areas that all can access, not just in specialist rooms Maybe we need to initiate more discussions based on the reading material available, eg latest magazines and encourage higher order thinking through interaction with other communities and libraries via video conferencing and virtual classrooms

    I think this is an important event for us to attend. I'm not sure how I can move my curriculum forward without it. (How's the budget looking?)

What Do You Do On The Last Day Of Class? (Part Two) | Larry Ferlazzo's Websites of the ... - 0 views

  • I teach technology at a grade school. I have 2 projects I’ve done in different years. One is to write a letter to a child who will come in to that grade telling them what that grade will be like. I give them some guidelines, like your 3 favorite things, what you need to know about the teacher, something that will be a challenge. The teacher can use that at meet the teacher day, or the first day of school. The 2nd project I’ve done is “3 Words”. Students pick 3 words to tell upcoming students about the grade. For example: Do Your Homework, Mrs. Smith Rocks, Tell the Truth. You can take a picture of the student with their words, and make it into a book or a slide show.

      I like this idea for end of year activity.  the 3 words could be a Wordle.  The letter could be a collaborative document that would help us evaluate the effectiveness of the rotation
