" Web 2.0 (as presented in a Flowgram) January 17, 2009 by Paul Hamilton One of the many powerful and impressive resources waiting in the "cue" for me to test and write about is Flowgram. As I was exploring possibilities, I came across one of the very best overviews I've seen to date about the Read-Write Web. So today, I'm simply going to embed this marvelous example of a Flowgram. My post about the application will have to wait for another day. Thanks to M. Seifman of Miami Valley Career Technology Center for this excellent presentation. If you wish to view a full screen version of the flowgram, click on the large blue button marked "Player" in the bottom right corner. AddThis Posted in 1 | Tagged flowgram, M. Seifman, Miami Valley Career Technology Center, Read-Write Web, Web 2.0 | 2 Comments » SqoolTube (Online Resource) January 14, 2009 by Paul Hamilton Youtube has become a vast treasure trove of engaging resources that can be used to great effect in the classroom. There are two major challenges, however, when it comes to using these resources. The first challenge is the time-consuming task of finding exactly what you need. The second challenge arises from the sad reality that Youtube is actually blocked in far too many schools. Here's a resource that helps on both counts. SqoolTube has searched and catalogued an extremely valuable collection of Youtube videos that support learning at the elementary or primary school level (K-8). These videos are then passed along from the SqoolTube URL, so unless a school or school district is excessively restrictive, it is unlikely that these videos will be blocked. Videos are categorized by subject area (math, music, reading & communication, safety, science, science, Spanish, social studies). There are also three other headings: Book-Related; Early Childhood; Holidays. I especially like some of the video versions of children's books that are available." comment by Paul Hamilton

An extraordinary moment happened in the making of this commercial for SMART. Students were collaborating, storyboarding, visualizing, and coordinating their strategies for creating this video project on the art room's interactive whiteboard. These 4th grade students are hoping to win a SMART board for their classroom since they understand how transformational this interactive tool can be for learning. Luckily for them, their class is looping to 5th grade with the same teacher, so they would be directly benefiting if their video is chosen.
