    Great advice: "Just let the kids touch the computers!" we're going to do that!

    yes, the idea of explaining a math concept and recording it is great! I plan to use Show Me to try this- I can start this right away to explain math games for game night.

Twitter how to

    So- I always shied away from Twitter and did not realize that the most useful way to use it would be for gathering information about a question or for following real time stories/news as it unfolds. Yesterday I went on to Twitter and put in #irene and it was amazing to see people commenting from South Carolina to New Jersey. I currently have the Twitter app for iPad but might switch and will let you know how I like it.

    This article may provide us with some insights for our own school-wide venture into PBL.

    What an inspirational piece. I love the story of the guests observing kids on their cell phones in the hall during class time. The principal responds by saying, "Let's see what's going on..." The kids were setting up appt.s with the City Commissioner. Trust and Freedom with Responsibility in action.

iMovie iPad apps

shared by Michele Mathieson on 08 Aug 11 - No Cached
  • 1. Start an iPad iMovie by clicking the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen.
  • 2. Click the video window to show available videos on the iPad. These are videos which have been saved to the Photo Roll. Click the arrow on a video to insert it into your project where the playhead (the red line) is positioned.
  • 3. Note as videos are inserted into a project, iMovie for iPad adds a yellow border around them in the video library. This makes them appear different from other videos so you can identify ones not yet imported into the project. (They won’t have a colored border around them.) Also notice the total time of the imported video is shown at the end of the last clip.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • 4. Click the settings icon (it looks like a gear) in the upper right corner to choose a theme for your project. My favorite is the CNN iReport theme, since it allows you to show your location as well as a project title at the start of your video.
  • 5. To “split” a clip into two parts, first drag the clip so the playhead (red line) is on the spot where you want it split. Think of a split like you are cutting the video into two pieces with a virtual knife. Click on the clip ONCE to select it. It should be highlighted in yellow when selected.
  • 6. Next, swipe your finger down, across the clip over the red playhead line. This will split the clip into two pieces.
  • 7. Double click a clip to make changes to the settings for it. These include setting a title, a location (used in the opening title of the iReport theme) and adjusting the clip’s audio level. Individual clips can also be deleted from this menu.
  • 8. Select the Title Style and choose the desired option. Color and formatting differences apply to different title styles. The iReport theme includes three styles for the opening, middle and ending of the video.
  • 9. Text can be entered for each title style by touching the “Title Text Here” area in the video preview window. Text will resize automatically to fit in the space provided.
  • 11. Click the MY PROJECTS tab at the top of the screen to return to the starting menu for iMovie for iPad. Click the title to change it as desired.
  • 12. Individual clips can be trimmed by clicking on them once to select them. This will reveal “trimming handles” which look like dots above the starting and ending points of a clip. Drag these trimming handles to the left or right to shorten or lengthen a clip as desired.
  • 13. Transitions are automatically inserted between different clips in your iMovie. Click on the transition icon between clips to modify it. By default a cross-dissolve transition is used.
  • 14. When you are finished editing and ready to publish your project, click the MY PROJECTS tab at the top to return to the home screen. Then click the publish icon at the bottom of the screen, which looks like a box with an arrow on it. Select the desired location for sharing.
  • 15. Enter the desired title, description, category and tags for your video. Additionally, choose the size to share (large is recommended) and the privacy settings.
  • 16. Click SHARE in the upper right corner. Your video will now EXPORT into a compressed format
  • 17. After your video is published, iMovie will display a screen with the option to TELL A FRIEND. If you select this option, you can email yourself the direct link to your video.

    This is a cool article David shared. I bet some of our children would love to try it this year since many families have iPads at home.
  • Lisa Keeler on 28 Sep 11
     
    I love this. Completely agree with the observation that students are doing this in the safest of places and have control as they decide how many recordings to make and which to submit. What a great portfolio assessment possibility. And parents would likely be in the know since the children are doing this at home...what a great place to start a dialogue with parents about independent reading.

    I would also suggest that you click on the teacher links and the kids' videos.

    Thanks, Sallie ... Lots to ponder and discuss. I say it's all about the teaching ... with a little tech or a lot of tech .. It's still about the teaching.

    Tagxedo, edistorm, kerpoof, and more. Check out Dipity for creating timelines. Fun, creative websites we could be using. Think about using the websites both on the iPad, but also in the computer labs.
