Edusim is a 3D virtual world (like Secondlife) for the classroom interactive whiteboard or interactive surface that brings a virtual worlds to the Smartboard, Mimio, Promethean, Polyvision smart boards. Edusim brings virtual learning worlds into the classroom!

ClipSyndicate is the leading video syndication platform to search, choose and embed the best video news content online. I'd like to see how this would work with an online course.

Online media is exploding...and with it, a new class of creative people producing their own music, podcasts, professional-level photography and video shows.

That sounds awesome! I want to also involve my future students into this type of interactions!

Check out this video from cisco of how it could work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0_WhSdsgBo

Evening!

Lead: Looking for Educators to participate in Voicethread site on Wednesday evening.

I'm currently a grad student at the University of Houston Clear Lake working on my Master of Instructional Technology.

I'm working on a unit integrating Video into online learning environments. I was wondering if anyone was interested posting a voicethread video or audio comment on a video I will be picking out related to the unit.

I want to show the social abilities now capable online.

I'm currently the only one in my class using this type of interaction.

Hope to learn more from everyone!!!
Please contact me, I'll be posting the Voicethread Information to my blog Wednesday and integrating it to my moodle course.
