Week 9 Podcast & Videos

Wow, I've been into Teacher Tube and had a lot of fun watching videos. What I liked about the site was there is a great selection of videos and ideas for what I can do with my students in class. What I disliked about the site what that I found a really fun video called 'Houghton Muffin Don't' and lost it and couldn't get it back even though I did a search. The other thing I didn't like was that a few of the videos I tried to get into were - yes you guessed it - BLOCKED.

I was really excited that I was able to download this video for you to watch. It wasn't the video I was excited about (although I love the music) but the fact that I was able to download it myself. Anyway, listen to it and see what you think.

Week 7 - Wikispace

I've been into Wikispace before now and had a look around. I've never created my own space but have had students editing work on Wiki that other people had put on.

However after going into elm2008 Wiki then into Sandbox which Peter created and reading the first part of his story, I then contributed to it. This looks like a fun way of getting students involved in writing and will give it a try with my students.

I tried all the links for 'On line Productivity tools' and every one of them was BLOCKED. Typical.
