Is It Really Hip to Flip? -- THE Journal - 0 views

    • Frank Barnes
       
      We need to better define what "flipping" means. We can't simply have students view video lectures to discuss later in class. This is merely substitution for discussing the previous night's reading. Reuben Puentadura's SAMR model lists substitution as only the first step in the paradigm shift we face. There are many other things that could be included with the video lesson and augmented by mobile technology that would make learning more interesting, effective, and sustaining.
  • Any technology implementation proceeds in stages. If video use is included in lesson plans, then decide if it is more appropriate to use video that is self-produced or developed by others. The decision might be influenced by your content expertise and production skills. In either case, multimedia principles for learning should be considered, including accessibility of the video content by all.

    "Video is the way that we, increasingly, communicate stories, news, information and even ideas to one another. It's powerful because it often transcends barriers of language and of culture. It is universal and powerful. It drives everything from politics to religion, and much in between"

  • little about Readdle Documents, which launched a new version today that is FREE (no cost) and if you haven't installed it yet, why haven't you?!? Today we are launching a new application – Documents. It is a robust document reader, media player and file manager for iPad.Why should you install Documents on your iPad?The application is super useful. A child could use it, but is can do so much, that we have a 20-page guide to cover everything. With all this power, Documents is completely free (with no ads or in-app purchases).The ultimate goal was to create an app that everyone will use. It had to be elegant, easy to use and powerful.

  •  Documents app, gets out of the way and offers functionality in a beautiful package. 3 Gone: FlexPlayer - This is one of those must-have video viewing apps but I was thrilled to see that Documents provides for full-screen video playback on MP4, m4v video formats, although not AVI or FLV. Playback is great and makes 4 Gone: Stanza

Apple iBooks 2 textbook hands-on (video) - 3 views

    • Frank Barnes
       
      This is a handy feature. Being able to aggregate notes is a step up from just leaving them on the page where they were made. The video and article mentioned publishing for free. I presume they are referring to iPublisher (iBooks Author). What they don't mention is that each book stays with the account owner, meaning that in a school setting the book belongs to the student. Sounds good, but when the student finishes the class, he still owns the book and the school can't use it for the next student coming in. Gives the book a very short usable shelf-life.

Using eML for Dynamic eBooks - 0 views

  • Also figures, tables and examples can be displayed with all references being automatically renumbered if you move them, MP3 audio files and YouTube videos can be embedded, you can add bookmarks (by clicking on a heading and once again on the star icon that appears), and do a lot more besides. But, most importantly, the eML Reader application has been written using cross-browser JavaScript, so it functions on all major platforms and web browsers, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux—and it runs very well on the Apple iPad, Iphone, and iPod Touch, and on Google Android devices too.

Applying the SAMR model into education « Adobe Education Leaders - 1 views

  • We are no longer producing a simple report. Information that would original have been compiled by an individual could now involve many contributors; collaborating in real time on the same document. An example might be to use a public document on Google Docs allowing for instant global collaboration on the project. The project could include photographs, graphics, even video, added from many different devices. Spreadsheet calculations will cascade through a document and be available for all decision makers in a moment. Immediately the task has seen the removal of multiple steps, and many more users are viewing and editing the document, increasing communication, accuracy, and productivity.

How To Use Google Drive and Evernote To Create Digital Portfolios - 1 views

    • Frank Barnes
       
      Evernote has been extremely helpful in organizing and assisting my own productivity. This sheds some light on how many of it's features can be a powerful addition to teaching and learning.

      Thanks Frank, this was my GEM find for the day. I will use it with my eportfolio group.
  • he Google Drive app now allows for the creation of Documents, Spreadsheets, and Folders. Plus, the ability to upload photos and videos from the camera roll. WIth many PDF annotation apps such as Notability and Paperport Notes now allowing direct upload to Google Drive, the process of curating student work becomes even easier.

  • that they have also gained greater understanding, reflected on their learning, and mastered content?
  • Evernote provides one possible solution to the challenge. The ability to sync across multiple devices, email directly to a notebook, include photos and audio recordings in notes, and share notes, makes Evernote a powerful assessment and portfolio tool. Teachers can create one notebook per student and then curate their projects by taking photos of physical assignments, sharing digital ones via email to the student’s notebook, recording students’ thoughts and reflections with audio, and typing additional notes for assessment purposes, to create a robust portfolio for each child. These student notebooks could then be shared with colleagues, peers, or parents.

The Future of Education: Tablets vs. Textbooks - Mobiledia - 2 views

  • This pilot program reveals when it comes to engaging today's students, it's not the content that matters, but the format. Students in the California experiment accessed the same content on the iPad as in a traditional book, but those who used the digital version tested higher.
  • A small but growing number of researchers are uncovering evidence that readers are better able to remember what they read in printed books long-term when compared to materials read via an electronic screen, raising questions about tablets in the classroom.
  •  
    Divided as researchers sort out whether readers of tablets or textbooks perform better. As well as hidden costs of mobile devices.

    I tried sharing comments using Evernote as an experiment. I don't think it worked, so here is what I had posted there: The Future of Education: Tablets vs. Textbooks BY MARGARET ROCK "Publisher Houghton Mifflin Harcourt tested an interactive, digital version of an Algebra 1 textbook for Apple's iPad in California's Riverside Unified School District. Students who used the iPad version scored 20 percent higher on standardized tests versus students who learned with traditional textbooks." * This is interesting. It's noted later in the article that students who read a more traditional textbook in digital format, without the benefit of the bells and whistles of a book designed to play on the strengths of digital media, did no better than those reading paper books. My thinking on this is that the books that moved beyond just the traditional text and images were more intriguing because they allowed students to interact in more diverse ways with the information. One of the reasons I enjoy reading on my Nook is that it more closely resembles the experience of reading on paper. The advantage over paper is that I can annotate and highlight without damaging the book, plus I like the dictionary feature. Reading a book on a computer is not as rewarding as reading on a good quality reader. The Houghton Mifflin Harcourt folks add much more to the experience through videos, audio links, animations, and links to ancillary information while maintaining the options I mentioned in my Nook experience. It's more engaging because there's more to do and more of the senses are being addressed. "A small but growing number of researchers are uncovering evidence that readers are better able to remember what they read in printed books long-term when compared to materials read via an electronic screen, raising questions about tablets in the classroom." "For example, Kate Garland, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Leicester in England, conducted a study on the effects of e-books
