    Organize twitter feeds
  •  
    As I expand my social media life, I see TweetDeck as the logical tool to manage my Twitter feeds, whether to following a particular user or a subject. For now, I see this more as a teacher tool than student tool being able to follow classroom feeds, hashtags, and multiple Twitter accounts. It would be much more useful on a computer with a large monitor, but it certainly beats having an extra browser tabs open. I could see students perhaps using this application to follow their classroom feeds, but likely with limited use. I have not seen this type of application before. I was hooked on it right away. Thanks for sharing!

    A great way to organize your hashtags you follow, participate in tweetchats, and keep an eye on your twitter feed.

TweetDeck | About - 1 views

  •  
    "The most powerful Twitter tool for real-time tracking, organizing and engagement."
  •  
    I really think that TweetDeck could be very helpful for my classroom. I have joined numerous twitter feeds on education and technology and at least TweetDeck will help me keep them straight. I think that TweetDeck is mostly for teacher use. I believe this because during the school day, most districts usually have sites like twitter and other social media blocked. I have also seen TweetCaster which is similar to TweetDeck with a free and paid version. TweetDeck is nice but TweetCaster also allows you to hide certain people from the twitter feed without actually unfollowing them.

Education Examples - Celly - 0 views

    Similar to Twitter, but without ads. Create a cell for a class, have discussions over content, take notes, share information and more.
  •  
    This seems like a great resource Abby. I've been trying to find Twitter replacements, since our district blocks Twitter and most other social media sites. Do you have experience using this? I'd love to know more.
  •  
    Although my district does not block Twitter, I see this as a great tool for lower elementary kids.

    Twitter is a device to not only stay connected to friends, but it also a way to stay connected to what is happening in the education world.  Twitter allows you to follow people and see the things they are tweeting about in education.

    T Chat is an efficient and easy way to participate in tweet chats without havin to go directly through twitter.

Scannables - 0 views

  •  
    Scan Me allows you to create QR codes, similar to codes found in businesses. I use it to make business card codes, follow me (Twitter, Facebook) codes at school, and for making a digital contact card.

Build engaged audiences through publishing by curation. | Scoop.it - 0 views

  •  
    Very easy to interact with. A way to share great information with your PLN
  •  
    Type in a topic and Scoop.it! will find resources that are related to the topic you entered. You can then share that information via Twitter, facebook, etc.
  •  
    This is an awesome student source for beginning researchers. I spend a lot of time with my 9th graders vetting websites and this is a tool that can lead them to ideas faster. I see this being a great option for students in my class who need information but don't know where to start. Are there any other sources like this?

Twitucate - 0 views

  •  
    This site allows teachers to create a class Twitter account so that students don't need individual usernames and passwords.
  •  
    twiducate is the perfect solution for elementary and secondary students. Rather than having your students sign up and enter an email address, you sign up and create a class code.

Storify · Make the web tell a story - 0 views

  •  
    Storify allows users to create stories by importing content into a timeline. I've seen Storify used to archive tweet chats, such as #iaedchat. I haven't used it personally can certainly see potential uses, such as archiving a class hashtag follow.

    I have only started to explore the world of AR, but am excited for its use in education. I create a group of auras for a display board on digital citizenship this past autumn and am looking to use it here soon at a Leadership Workshop with other teachers. Right now, I can only think of use by teachers and that's because I haven't thought of ways to include students yet. looking for ideas though. Augmented reality apps and websites can easily be found: PopAR, colAR, Chromville, Elements4D, AR Flashcards, Layar, and Codigo Code just to name a few.
  •  
    Rob, I've intrigued by augmented reality since I first learned about it at an EdCamp last winter. Since then I've played around with AR flashcards, Chromville and Aurasma. I can see this application used both by teachers and students. It is my hope to generate some Aurasma's next year that students can demonstrate to the public. This will work to connect student learning to the public and showcase our 1:1 ipad initiative! @travislappe is someone you should follow on Twitter - he's a tech integrationist in South Dakota that has been very active with augmented reality.
  •  
    I have been intrigued by augmented reality since beginning the VREP program at my school. This resource looks like a user friendly way to introduce the concept of AR into the classroom. I have actually used Poly Fauna for a collaborative project with West Central's chorus. It was a great way to tell a story and adapt a virtual storyboard to music. It definitely expanded the lesson plans I had previously implemented with our peer groups.

    A place to store articles and videos from Twitter, your browser, etc. I use it as a storage for things I want to read later and/or use later
  •  
    Mecka, this seems like a great alternative to RSS feeds. What are your thoughts about that? I like having a place to store all my articles so I don't go crazy!
