The Why’s and Wherefores (audio) by Brian Crosby

The Why’s and Wherefores (audio) by Brian Crosby

Using what is happening in my classroom as a backdrop, we’ll endeavor to provide reasons, methods and rationale during our time here that support integration of 21st century tools in education. We will share a few tools and methods that you may not have access to, but much of what you will see is probably available at your school site … you just don’t know it yet.

More Than Cool Tools (audio) - Alan Levine, Brian Lamb, D’Arcy Norman

More Than Cool Tools (audio) - Alan Levine, Brian Lamb, D’Arcy Norman

There is no shortage of "Cool New Web Tools" out there and all three of us are guilty as charged for presenting them to teachers via the firehose effect. In our session, we will begin with a nostalgic nod to our presentation past where just 3 years ago we were talking up "Small Pieces Loosely Joined" - blogs, wikis, and a little RSS. Now there is so much more, almost too much. So we may talk about some cool tools, but more at a level of looking at the affordances which make them compelling, and why these and future breeds of tools and platforms matter to K12 teachers.

LMS 2.0 - Engaging Learners Using More Advanced Techniques and the Odd Mash-up inside Moodle (audio) - Jason Hando

LMS 2.0 - Engaging Learners Using More Advanced Techniques and the Odd Mash-up inside Moodle (audio) - Jason Hando

A series of screencasts showing people how to bend and stretch Moodle to allow for authentic, web 2.0 style, participatory engagement and learning for their students. These screencasts will be accompanied by support files where appropriate, such as backed-up Moodle courses that can be restored on people’s sites as well as any instructional material such as worksheets in pdf form. I’d also like to provide some way for people to screencast their own work in Moodle and share with the rest of the community - perhaps using screen-o-matic, a free screencasting tool that works from your browser. This will allow other people to share new ways they have used Moodle.

Trailfire (audio) by April Chamberlain

Trailfire (audio) by April Chamberlain

Have you ever been sent to a list of websites to find information, evaluate a tool, etc. but lose your path once you get there? Trailfire is the tool for you and those you work with. Trailfire is a free tool in which the “guide” leaves “marks” on specific websites that when combined create a trail relating to a specific topic. Trails can be public or private. Viewers can leave comments and also collaborate on the trail if created as a wiki trail. Not only can teachers use this tool to direct learning with students but also when working with other teachers to share knowledge. Students are also able to create trails to share their knowledge in place of the traditional report, poster, etc. Come join the trail with other educators!
