After a lesson I will do a quick 2-3 minute review video on Show Me.  I then upload this video my Show Me account.  It's a very simple interface, extremely easy to use, and all you have to do is make a free account.  Using a QR code generator I make a QR code that links directly to the video and then tape it to the anchor chart. 

Active learning would include those activities that charge our brains and capacities to remember what we are experiencing. Passive learning would include those activities that people can still learn from, but not generally as effective as active learning. Given this, we should realize that every human being is different. We as instructors and educators should be flexible to adapt to every person's learning style and seek out their needs

The goal of the project is to bring scientific knowledge and philosophy to the public, in a novel way, through the medium of music

This is a class blog where the students create a weekly Street 'Talk' video. The street talk is all about things happening in their school. A great example of the possibilities of flipcams in schools. Would be great to get the community interested in what was happening in the school.

An interesting perspective on Facebook posts and cybersafety.

Welcome to Kidsnetsoft's Pixlr Workshop. Pixlr is a great alternative to the expensive software. Consequently, I have decided to make several lessons using this fabulous online tool. Students can go home and work on projects for free. They can become masters of the software if they so choose. The beauty of learning Pixlr is that you can transfer some of that knowledge to other software programs. I have been using Photoshop for over 15 years. My relatively proficient use of Photoshop has given me the understanding of image editors. With online editors coming and going, students need to be able to problem solve and trouble shoot new programs so they can be adaptable. Hopefully students can appreciate Pixlr as much as I have. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have Photoshop loaded on all my classroom computers. However, I am happy to be able to freely use this online tool in place of the more expensive software that schools aren't able to purchase.

We Give Books is a free website that enables anyone with access to the Internet to put books in the hands of children who don't have them, simply by reading online. Simply choose the charity you want to read for and then select the books you want to read. For each book you read online, we donate a book to a leading literacy group on your behalf. The more you read, the more we give.
