    Jing is a great web 2.0 tool for sharing your screen and recording objects for students when they are absent. There is also screencast, quicktime, or even Camtasia Studio.

    Jing is an awesome tool and I have used this tool many times sense I learned of its existence two years ago.

Why I Gave Up Flipped Instruction - 0 views

  •  
    Interesting article on a teacher's decision to end using the flipped classroom model.  Also, the article refers to a student-centered approach, not a teacher-centered approach. 
  •  
    The flipped classroom is something that I have been interested in doing when I become a teacher so I find this interesting. I saved it to look at more later but from what I read she did love some things about the flipped classroom and says that when she wrote about it in a previous post she doesn't disagree with anything she had written but that she has now decided to end it anyway. Looking at her reasons why she decided to end it, I think it seems it was more of just a personal preference than the fact that it didn't work well or that there were any major problems with it. It's definitely something I will read more carefully later on though!

    Great resource for ideas and collaborating with other educators regarding the use of iPads in education through blogs, tips, discussions, and videos. Great job on your "QR Code Crime Scene" video you posted to the Ning!!! Excellent example of what is possible!! I joined the Ning and will share this with teachers using iPads in our school.

    Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future classroom? Explain why or why not. I agree that this resource could be used efficiently in my classroom. I have an iPad in my classroom and this website gives great ideas of apps to use. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe the resource is mostly for teacher use but allows teachers to find apps for student use. Teachers can find resources, download them, and then allow students to use them. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. Yes, I have also seen websites that provide lists of apps and have included them in my own library.

    This is a great resource and one that totally is worth checking out! This is for sure a tool that can be used in the classroom. It is chalked full of great ideas and awesome tools to use in the classroom. This is mainly a tool for teacher use, but it could also be a resource for students looking for a different way to complete a project. There are many different uses of such an amazing ning like this! There are some great other Nings out there, Facebook pages, groups on LMS sites like Schoology, and other websites out there that are similar. This one is unique because of the Ning platform for sure!
  •  
    iPad technology is a new teaching tool will be used by teachers in classrooms. if will be very beneficial for both teachers and students 
  •  
    I thought this resource was great and thought provoking for the educator that has access to i pads in the classroom. Not only could educators use this source but parents as well. I also agree with Randon that it has student uses as well. I agree with Randon as well that many other resources and social media pages such as facebook and twitter are available, however the creation of this site gives a different navigational system to explore.
  •  
    This is a great resource for teachers and students in the classroom. The more resources that we have the greater the level of learning can be. Teachers and students will benefit for this resource. Thanks for sharing

VoiceThread - Conversations in the cloud - 0 views

  •  
    VoiceThread can be used in a variety of ways, educationally. Clearly, use by those in post-secondary education (as done in Technology in Education) is a fun way to enhance online courses. K-12 teachers can also use VoiceThread to present ideas for their classrooms and dialogue with other teachers. Or, teachers could ask their students to participate in "flat classroom" projects, using VoiceThread to do presentations for and get feedback from other students across the globe. A dynamic, multi-use collaboration tool for anyone involved in education at any level.

    This wiki holds an enormous amount of information pertaining to 21st century learning, learning styles, Bloom's taxonomy, learning styles, Web 2.0 tools, and more. I have only begun to view all of the pages of this wiki. I really like the starter sheets and rubrics for Bloom's digital taxonomy. K-12 or higher ed.
