    An open source application similar (VERY similar) to Microsoft's Zoomit. Give this to every teacher (Windows users only. Mac users have it built in) who uses an interactive whiteboard.

    Thanks for sharing this. Even though I do not have an iwb (yet), I think this will be useful when using a projector.

    "Showing videos and the occasional Hollywood film in the classroom is an innovative way to demonstrate concepts and expose common misconceptions while providing a thought provoking change of pace for students. These worksheets are NOT meant to supplement good interactive, thought provoking activities in the classroom, rather they are meant to provide an OCCASSIONAL change of pace in the classroom. It is recommend to show the film, then stop the footage, do some teaching, and start it up again."

    Revizr is a new way for content creators to interact with their audience, in public or in private. You decide if you want to communicate privately, socially, or wiki-style to improve and update your work. Your revisers don't change your documents directly. They provide you with contextual comments and editing suggestions you can use at your discretion. You have the control you need when you're responsible for the results.

  • School is one of the few times when they can get together with their friends and they use every unscheduled moment to socialize - passing time, when the teacher's back is turned, lunch, bathroom breaks, etc. They are desperately craving an opportunity to connect with their friends; not surprisingly, their use of anything that enables socialization while at school is deeply desired.
  • informal social learning
  • This drive to connect provides a unique opportunity for school teachers:  Incredibly high levels of student motivation paired with a predefined fluency with electronic communication tools.
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • One tool that can help educators to do just that is Voicethread.
  • Known as a “group audio blog,” Voicethread allows users to record text and audio comments about uploaded images.
  • Voicethread is Asynchronous:
  • Voicethread is Engaging:
  • Begin by carefully selecting a topic that will promote conversation and debate between students—and that can be conveyed through images currently available to you.
  • don’t be afraid to disagree with something
  • Initial comments should be somewhere between 1 and 3 sentences long. 
    • L Butler
      L Butler on 14 Oct 09
       
      As a teacher, this will be a challenge. The brief intro is what makes the difference between presentation and social education dialogue.
  • The best Voicethreads are truly interactive—with users listening and responding to one another. 
  • They come to the conversation with an open mind, willing to reconsider their own positions—and willing to challenge the notions of others. 
  • To be an active Voicethreader, start by carefully working your way through a presentation.   While viewing pictures and listening to the comments that have been added by other users, you should:   Gather Facts:  Jot down things that are interesting and new to you  Make Connections:  Relate and compare things you are viewing and hearing to things that you already know.  Ask Questions:  What about the comments and presentation is confusing to you?  What don’t you understand?  How will you find the answer?  Remember that there will ALWAYS be questions in an active thinker’s mind!  Give Opinions:  Make judgments about what you are viewing and hearing.  Do you agree?  Do you disagree?  Like?  Dislike?  Do you support or oppose anything that you have heard or seen?  Why? Use the following sentence starters to shape your thoughts and comments while viewing or participating in Voicethread presentations.  Comments based on these kinds of statements make Voicethreads interactive and engaging.   This reminds me of… This is similar to… I wonder… I realized… I noticed… You can relate this to… I’d like to know… I’m surprised that… If I were ________, I would  ______________ If __________ then ___________ Although it seems… I’m not sure that…

      These student suggestions are the missing link I was looking for to successfully incorporate into my classroom.
  • help other listeners know what it is that has caught your attention.
  • finish your comment with a question that other listeners can reply to.  Questions help to keep digital conversations going!
  • carefully script out short opening comments for each image that include a question for viewers to consider. 
  • Just be sure to disagree agreeably
  • Assessing Voicethread Participation
  • Essentially mirroring the reflective aspects of Konrad Glogowski's system for pushing reflective blogging, I've decided to ask my students the following four questions while we're working with a new Voicethread:
  • To craft careful answers, they must truly consider the comments of others---an essential skill for promoting collaborative versus competitive dialogue---and compare those comments against their own beliefs and preconceived notions. 
    • L Butler
      L Butler on 14 Oct 09
       
      Competitive dialogue motivates the students, but collaborative dialogue is the life skill they need to learn.
  • Voicethread allows users to upload documents to their strands of conversation as well.  That means that users can create a "Works Cited" page in a word processing application and upload it at the end of their Voicethread presentations.

      Very useful info - I have been individually citing each picture, and its unsightly.
  • Voicethread Do's and Don'ts
  • Citing Images
  • Voicethread Handouts  
  • This one-page handout is designed to introduce students to some general tips for participating in Voicethread conversations. 
  • L Butler on 14 Oct 09
     
    Detailed guide to creating/using/evaluating VoiceThread in the classroom. There are great examples and guides to download. The question prompts for students to consider when replying are simple, yet perfect.

    The Free Music Archive is an interactive library of high-quality, legal audio downloads. The Free Music Archive is being directed by WFMU, the most renowned freeform radio station in America. Radio has always offered the public free access to new music. The Free Music Archive is a continuation of that purpose, designed for the age of the internet. Every mp3 you discover on The Free Music Archive is pre-cleared for certain types of uses that would otherwise be prohibited by outdated copyright law. Are you a podcaster looking for pod-safe audio? A radio or video producer searching for instrumental bed music that won't put your audience to sleep? A remix artist looking for pre-cleared samples? Or are you simply looking for some new sounds to add to your next playlist? The Free Music Archive is a resource for all that and more, and unlike other websites, all of the audio has been hand-picked by established audio curators.
