Lance Rougeux DEN Started presentation using Google earth and a video saying he was floating above the convention center….very cleaver way to start presentation…. Benjamin Button- Go back in time to redo…now have a button on Google earth for this and eventually movie maker. In the 90’s students would write in journals and teacher would take home in milk carton to read and comment on, but their peers would not comment…today we can blog…. He shared a blog from Abernathy, a teacher who blogs from the perspective of their class mascot the gorilla. He shared videos of teachers using green screen to talk about going green…..You can use photostory to story board if you do not have a green screen. Get the flip cam….Paula said you can get cheap at Wal-Mart for about $49.00 with 45 min of recording….. Ideas from yesterday: Use voice thread for Carroll County unit……Google Earth….Look at wiki for interactive SS ideas…..look online at Dell outlet for small 9”laptop for low 200’s. Clickers…to collect meaningful data everyday in the classroom…..incorporated the clickers into his presentation to make interactive.
