This is a pretty cool app that my PE teachers want to buy. It allows the user to be John Madden and analyze their athletes improvements. It even allows editing and voice overs.
I saw this Dan Meyer TED Talk on re imagining Math through problem solving. I like how he takes a problem from the textbook and makes it more rigorous.
"Today's math curriculum is teaching students to expect -- and excel at -- paint-by-numbers classwork, robbing kids of a skill more important than solving problems: formulating them. In his talk, Dan Meyer shows classroom-tested math exercises that prompt students to stop and think. (Filmed at TEDxNYED.)"
One of my PE teachers sent this to me. She saw it in today's Diigo digest and got excited about it. "First 15 minutes provide an overview of technologies that can be used in K-12 PE. Many examples are provided."
