Texas Education: PoweronTeaching
1) Students making vocabulary video -- 4th grade bi-lingual class using flip camera to create quick videos to act out the words. Super idea and a great way build not only vocabulary, but confidence too!
2) Students using movie-maker to create movies for science safety in a 3rd grade dual language classroom. These students create puppets at home with their families, then worked collaboratively to create and plan the video that explained science lab safety.
3) 21st Century Teacher Preparation Course - from Abilene Christian University -- describes how student teacher candidates work to untilize digital storytelling into their "assignments" so that the likelihood of using TECHNOLOGY when they become a "certified" teacher they will USE technology seamlessly They set up before and after school sessions so that they, the student teachers, can come and help each other with the issues they've encountered. This sets them up for success in the real world of education so that they will be able to talk with their colleagues when they encounter issues.
Although these "podcasts" were really "videos," I really enjoyed seeing and using this resource. I want to explore deeper the for ideas concerning writing.
This could be explored for HOURS ~ Maybe this upcoming summer after GRADUATION!! :)
As far as bookmarking is concerned, I use LiveBinder for my personal and professional resources and have for about one year. At my district we are introducing SkyDrive Pro as a resource for bookmarking and keeping files. I just had training on it today, and my hands are still shaky! I'm sure it will take a bit getting used to, but I really like my LIVEBINDER ... it's like a sweet sip of SAAAAWEEET TEA!!!
