Google Earth Outreach - 0 views

  •  
    This website highlights the uses of Google Earth which is a free download for anyone to use. There is a community message board you can join and check out. It features many of the resources Google Earth has as well as important topics facing education and our earth. There are also features that allow people to stand up for their own causes to help preserve the earth and it's resources. It's a great website to share with colleagues, students, and friends.

    This works with google earth. Teachers can create lessons on google earth that are centered around literature. This will take the student to the place on the "map". The teacher can embed bits or bytes of information there for the student to view.

    Love this site! Google has provided schools with a professional development guideline to teach Google apps. These are awesome tools that are not utilized enough in the classroom and this would be a great way to show your colleagues what is out there for them.

Google Docs - 1 views

  •  
    The directions are easy: Upload your files from your desktop, edit and view your docs from any computer or smart phone. This is a great resource for teachers and students as the students can work on an assignment from their computer at home and the teacher can access it and see how they are doing.

  •  
    This site gives us a quick overview of what web 2.0 is doing and where it is taking us with technology. It is a video that shows us how far we have come since 1996 working with HTML and now working so much with digital.

Creative Commons Search - 0 views

  •  
    This site allows you to search for copyright friendly images. This site helps you to understand what type of copyright license the image exists under and how you can use it. The site allows you to explore through different tabs (Google Web, Flickr, Yahoo, etc.). My favorite is Flickr because of the images and the easy-to-understand copyright symbols and explanations.

MAPme.com - Map your World! - 0 views

  •  
    Create a map of your favorite places, travels or destinations. Public, private, or community maps are available to make. I could see using this site in a variety of ways. It could be used as a beginning of the year "Get-to-know-you" activity. It could also be used to focus in on a specific geographical area in a Social Studies or Geography unit.

A Digital Native ‎(Technology 4 Educators)‎ - 0 views

  • As an educator, do you ever find yourself feeling like the dad in Zits? Perhaps a "digital immigrant" in a technology obsessed nation? If so, then this website is for you! Choose one of the links below to get started learning the language of the digital natives (or perhaps I should say, "digital intuitives"-a term coined by Ben and Jared from EdTech Innovators-students have the intuitiveness to use technology but do they know how to use it appropriately to learn, to solve problems, to access information, and to create?).

      I love that this is exactly what we are learning about in this program. It is how technology is growing so fast and we are trying to keep up with the students of today by understanding all this "techie jargon". I think this site will be so helpful to the person who wants to learn more about the way technology is used by students today.

    This site helps explain the basics of web 2.0 tools to a technology immigrant. It is a great site that would allow educators who are scared to learn about technology, because it is a very simple site that would teach them about what students are using today.
