Web 2.0 for the Classroom Teacher - 4 views

  •  
    List of Web 2.0 tools for teachers.
  •  
    Kelly- There are some great tools listed here. Be forewarned that it looks like they don't maintain this site so many links are broken. Still a good place to poke around.
  •  
    Kelly- After doing some drilling down in this resource I found the Web 2.0 Projects handbook. http://www.terry-freedman.org.uk/web2_2010/Amazing%20Web%202%20Projects%202%20online%20version.pdf Hugely helpful in that it provides comprehensive projects for various grade levels and outlines what technologies are used to do the projects.

  •  
    A lot of Web 2.0 tools!!!!
  •  
    There are a HUGE number of tools here. I wonder when folks will raise the white flag and yell "UNCLE"? I can understand why folks would just avoid wading through so many options in favor of maintaining the classroom status quo. But definitely worth poking through some of these resources.

Discovery Education Web2012 : Web 2.0 Tools - 2 views

  •  
    This site has a list of LOTS of tools to use in the classroom and out. Not all, I think, qualify as 2.0, but they all might be useful either way. Photo, slideshow, video, social etc. The page isn't a program itself, but a portal to find programs.
  •  
    Katie- There are some very useful tools linked to this site. Thanks for sharing. Be sure not to miss the ones posted under "Related Links"

Flipped learning: A response to five common criticisms | eSchool News - 1 views

  •  
    There is a huge buzz about flipping the classroom. I heard it at the NCTM math conference and our Math chair is very interested in it. The idea is why have them in class doing what they can do at home-- listening and watching. Class time should be for answering questions on the material and conducting projects and explorations.

    Hi JoAnne - The MTTS are the cornerstone of the planning for Teacher Technology Training. They are very helpful guidelines but they were developed several years ago. I wonder if we would revisit them?

    JoAnne- I would make the argument that no teacher should require students to produce a project that will incorporate media or web content unless they ALSO provide information on how to use Creative Commons material. Good work!
