    This is for those that would like to see more gaming in education. This tool allows you to create your own levels. These levels could be designed to fit a lesson in your class, or even have students create them. There does seem to be some cost in the store.

    Gamification is the use of game design techniques and mechanics to solve problems and engage audiences. Typically gamification applies to non-game applications and processes (also known as "funware"), in order to encourage people to adopt them. Gamification works by making technology more engaging, by encouraging users to engage in desired behaviors, by showing a path to mastery and autonomy, and by taking advantage of humans' psychological predisposition to engage in gaming. (definded by wikipedia). This is a blog that introduces how use gamification in education and business. It also provides some sources and tools.

    This is a good resource that teachers can use to help guide them in any eLearning courses they may have to prepare. I will use this if I have to create such a course.

    This is Iowa's early intervention.  This is for children that are birth to age three.  This is early access' links and resources pages.  Having this page is help because these resources are researched before they are put onto this page.  
  • Diana Boeck on 09 Nov 11
     
    This would be a great resource in my future classroom because it is has well researched, reliable links to provide information on early intervention resources. Many times teachers do not have the knowledge of ability to provide an individual child with what they need. So this site can direct teachers to organizations and resources that can help that child. This site would only be used by teachers, health care providers, social service agencies, and parents. It is not designed for students learning activities or a resource for coursework. I am not aware of any other resources like this that focus on birth through age three.

  • The conversations in these blogs on Educational Innovation and Technology are an exciting opportunity to explore a promising mix — the synergies that can result from combining innovation, the utilization of technology in education and the role of education entrepreneurs in creating new designs that can transform the ecosystem.
  • Nelson Rokke on 15 Nov 11
     
    This is one of a series of articles discussing the current and future structure of our educational systems. Many believe that those with a special interest in technology and/or entrepreneurship will play an important part in reforming this system. Blogs are specifically mentioned as presenting an exciting opportunity to explore and share ideas; this could be shared and used in the classroom.

    Spicynodes is a web 2.0 application that is designed for creating mindmaps. This site is a very interactive way map out information. You are also able to save your mindmaps to your account so that you can come back to them. It reminds me of Prezi with a different twist.
  • Libby Sturgeon on 15 Nov 11
     
    I really like this site Mikael. It reminds me of the Inspiration software - but free! This would be great for schools to use who do not purchase that software. Mindmaps are a great organizational tool both for students and teachers, I can definitely see myself using this source in the future.

  • Want to make exemplary rubrics in a short amount of time? Try RubiStar out!
  • anonymous on 14 Nov 11
     
    "Best site for building rubric templates." It allows you to pick from a list of projects, (say a Newspaper Article) then it gives you options for categories for the rubric. (grammar, overall design, content, collaboration, illustration, sources etc...) For each category it fills in descriptions of point values, and allows you to add or change whatever you want.
  • Nelson Rokke on 15 Nov 11
     
    Rubistar allows users to easily create an effective form of evaluation for their projects. You may search existing rubrics created by other teachers to inspire your creativity, or to guide your assessment as you examine the criteria. If you are struggling to find the right words to express the various levels of achievement for your criteria, Rubistar offers rubric templates to assist you in your efforts.

    Vicki Davis, who runs the Cool Cat Teacher blog, is also active on Twitter and posts insightful tweets.

    This is a great blog, it is also one that is posted daily. This makes it extremely useful and worth my time to check. She has so many resources for any type of technology out there. This is blog is designed for teachers but is useful for students in the college of education.

    Vicki Davis is a pioneer for using online applications and Web 2.0 with students. She is a superwoman! I agree with Hailey, this blog is extremely useful for teaching candidates, because it provides us with real life examples (Vicki's students and the FCP) of how online education is working! I think this resource would prove more useful to teachers because it discusses many different things that a teacher might face, and she also relates personal stories for examples. It kind of gives us some perspective on what we might expect when using web apps and online learning in the classroom. Angela Maeirs' education blog is a similar type of blog, and both women are incredibly inspiring teachers.

    I like how there are daily posts to the website. As a teacher candidate i would consider using this site a lot in the future.

    I have been following this blog for a little over a year now. I feel like this blog is an excellent resource for teachers. This blog shows educators how they can incorporate these new applications or tools into their own teaching. This is one of the best educational blogs that I have ever come across.
  • Joe Johnson on 14 Nov 11
     
    This is the first time I have seen this blog. I believe this is a great way for educators to learn new ways to incorporate new tools into their classrooms. It seems to update often, and I plan on viewing this resource in the future, because of the interesting topics that are being blogged about.

    I've been following this blog and I also follow her on twitter. She has some great ideas and I really enjoy reading her posts.
