    Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was looking for this site the other day and couldn't remember what it was called and then I found it here. I wanted to put some links for my third graders and this is what I needed!

YouTube Education Channel - 0 views

  •  
    This is the YouTube channel specific to education. Can be used by teachers to brush up on their own knowledge of some primary subjects. Some vids are appropriate to be incorporated into the classroom for students to view - potential for use in Webquests.

    Just FYI: sorry if this gets posted twice. I accidentally posted these far before the assignment was due, and wanted to ensure they are still visible on the group.

    This is a great resource for teachers! I always have trouble knowing what videos are more "educational" than others and this would be a great way to ensure you have good videos to show! I never knew there was a specific channel for education. I love how you can browse according to the subjects. I watched some of the videos and they seems great!

YouTube Editor - 0 views

  •  
    This is YouTube's free video editing Web 2.0 program.  Students and teachers could use this to create and store online media for classes.  Many schools have Google accounts for their students that could be used to access the YouTube video editor as long as administrator provided the proper permissions.  This could also be a free alternative to programs districts must pay for like iMovie or WeVideo.

    I know someone else already posted this, but it was such a great find (and I did not know it existed!!) that I had to bookmark it for myself. I am posting this for totally selfish reasons, and not for use with my students exclusively. Although, I am sure I could use this editor to enhance instructional videos, or my students could use it to enhance videos they may create as projects. Currently, I'm excited to use it for myself, for current class projects. =X

Teachers Love SMART Boards - Resources for the SMART Board classroom - 2 views

  •  
    A great resource for educators who use SMART Boards.  The articles on here are written by teachers and for teachers that use these boards.  Lots of good articles and constantly updated as well.

    SMART Boards can be great if used properly with some awesome ideas...or they can be a huge waste of money. This group of educators has done an awesome job really laying out some new ideas and different templates to use with SMART Boards. Check them out!
  •  
    This looks like a very useful resource relating to SMART Boards. I know that I have really neglected digging into all of the resources out there for my SMART Board, so I think if I set a goal to explore sites like this on a regular basis, it'll give me good ideas for how I could be using my board for more than just a glorified YouTube player. The reviewers of the various templates and activities do a good job discussing what does/does not work or why they liked them. I have not researched many SMART Board sites, but look forward to finding more.

    This is very good tool to use with SMART Boards, this will be beneficial for teachers to use in classrooms. It will make it easy and fun for students to follow their teacher.
  •  
    Thank you for sharing this with us. We are are relatively new to SMART Boards and this seems to be a good one for teachers to be able go out and find material that they may use in the classroom. There always seem to be more material for K-8 than for 9-12 areas. Great sources for teachers to find tips also
  •  
    This is a great resource! I really like the section that has SMART Board training on it. A lot of teachers in the classroom don't really know how to use these resources to their fullest extent and by having it so they can teach themselves online is great. I would use it if I had a SMART Board in my classroom.

A is for app: iPads change landscape of learning - 0 views

  • But after seeing how easy the iPads are to use -- kids become their own experts by getting answers to their questions through YouTube videos or educational apps -- Pole changed her tune. Now she plans to get schooled on the iPad herself.

      This makes me wonder what they are really finding out answers to.  Also, is that the only thing they are using the iPads for?  Really!

      "More fun" that sounds like the iPads are being used for educational purposes for sure!  They must be a tool that connects directly to the curriculum.  Either the student does not get this or the reporter failed to understand why they are using iPads.

      No surprise there with the designation, but really - most are purchasing these devices without the proper pieces in place. Sad that it has taken the ed world by storm, but there is no idea how to actually include this in instruction...read on!

    This is a great article looking over the iPad craze and the Flipped Education idea in Minnesota schools.  It still makes me wonder what we are trying to teach out students by using these devices - What is the educational goal?  This article also points out the need for an investment in teacher training as an essential part of a technology program.  Check out the sticky notes and highlighting for more information.
