We discussed this video creation tool (Animoto) during one of our classes. I have since experimented with it and highly recommend that it be considered as a potential classroom video production tool. Educators can apply for 6 month free accounts (which may include up to 50 student accounts). It's ease of use and mild learning curve would certainly be appealing for use with primary students, or use as an experimental production tool for projects with students of any age.

Great compilation of online articles about using social media in the classroom. As an added bonus, it is laid out using a gorgeous Web 2.0 Magazine creator: scoop.it. 

I believe most of my HU peers have heard of and /or used this tool, but if you haven't here is a nice little video promo featuring its ease of use. Seemingly an excellent tool to help develop writing/collaboration/creativity with primary students.

More tools to experiment with. Many of these we have referenced in class, but the site promoting these tech tools seems to be an excellent resource in itself

If you are not involved in your own district conferences (which I know many are) next week here's an opportunity to plug into what seems to be an event with endless 2.0 resources/topics. I have not engaged in this event in the past. If any affiliated with this diigo group network have partaken in the past...please provide for me feedback of your experience with this event. Thank you in advance!
