    This looks similar to jiing! I love the idea of having a voice behind a presentation because reading slides can be so boring! In the examples I watched, I noticed that music played. What a great addition to a presentation. I could see students having a lot of fun with this. It would be beneficial to both teachers and students.

Educreations - Teach what you know. Learn what you don't. - 0 views

  •  
    Educreations can be used with an iPad or web browser. It is an interactive white board that allows you to create and voice record video lessons. I've used it to provide students feedback by taking a screenshot of their work, then annotating and recording my thoughts. I've also used it to flip a lesson and to provide lessons when my class is cancelled for weather. There is no such thing as a snowday with Educreations!

Blabberize.com - Got a picture? Blabberize it! - 1 views

  •  
    Blabberize is a fun 2.0 tool that allows you to record your voice with a static photo. Besides, they use a llama on their home page to demonstrate how it's used. What's not to love about that?
  •  
    I could see a student using this to create an audio story for a classroom exercise. It's pretty ridiculous, but I imagine that's the appeal of it. It looks so simple that it would be a shame to not try it out! And I'm not aware of anything like it, except for JibJab, but that's much more limited in what you can do with it. I just am surprised that the Llama's audio is so poor...

ShowMe Interactive Whiteboard on the App Store on iTunes - 1 views

  •  
    Even though this app only works on iPads, I consider it a Web 2.0 tool as well because recorded "ShowMe's" are accessible on your computer. Similar to Educreations, it is an interactive whiteboard. I've used with with elementary students to create social stories. I use my iPad to take a picture of them doing the preferred activity, then have them voice record their own description. Very effective with children with autism!

Voices in the Sea - Scripps Whale Acoustic Lab - 0 views

    A great site for younger kids, to get an idea for the size & characteristics of various marine species. Some of the most detailed visualizations available on the web...and the audio recordings are outstanding. This is a great site to display via a projector in a classroom...be sure to turn the speakers up!

VoiceThread - Conversations in the cloud - 0 views

    This allows teachers to hold a forum. Students can reply with audio or text to a question. They can even draw on the existing image to make a point. Others in the group can then respond in turn.
  •  
    As you could tell from our class using it, I think this would be great for small group discussions versus the whole class. I could see this being used efficiently for a group presentation that the students would create and then have another group comment on the voice thread for pointers on what to consider, etc. This resource is definitely both uses depending on how you set it up whether it is a teacher forum or a student led forum.

    Great site to use for collaborative projects. So many ways to share and communicate.

    Wiki that has videos made by students concerning different math topics.

    Abby - I really liked the fact that these videos were made by students. I feel sometimes that interests my students more when they see that other students have made it. I agree that this would be a very effective tool. I watched the video on the different shapes and thought it would have been nice to have shown my students that last month when we were working on geometry. I think the resource could be used by both teachers and students. Teachers could get ideas how to explain things or they could just have the students watch the videos. I usually use TeacherTube when looking for math videos.

    Good find Abby! I will definitely be able to use this in the classroom. This could help create a blended learning environment by providing students with videos created by other students, instead of the same voice and style from Khan Academy or myself. Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future sources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. Teachers could use this to provide extra learning opportunities in the classroom as well. I have used YouTube to look for videos occasionally, as well as Khan Academy, but nothing made by students is typically found. Thanks again for this!

    If I were a teacher, I could definitely see using these in my classroom. Math can be so difficult for visual learners (like me!) so this makes the concepts a lot more accessible. Aside from YouTube and TeacherTube, I'm not aware of a similar dedicated resource to this.
  •  
    Wow. This is great! I'm going to try this out this fall! I can use this right away.
  •  
    I really like the fact these videos were made by students. Maybe if I am ambitious enough, I could have my students make videos to post on here!
