Blog Post #19 Gadgets and Gizmos: Smartboard Use, elmo, clickers, ipads due 11/20

Learning Target:

I can use gadgets and gizmos.
I know when, why, and how to use them well. (Good pedagogy and plan)

Task:
1) read about the types of gadgets we have in Classroom N and K
2) read the lists or explore the forums to find out how teachers are using them in meaningful ways.
3) Post as blog #19- which gadget you want to have in your classroom in the future, and three ways you want to use it.
4) Hands on exploration.  Go touch them, practice, download software and create a model lesson, use it in your presentation in a significant way.  Document this as part of post #19.  (some time in class will be given, but not very much).


Interactive White Boards:

Classroom N:  Smart Board

An alum explores and trains a teacher:  (and she will train you too!) 

1  Read this blog
2 .  and think about  her explanation of how she decided to train this teacher,
3.  and then watch the presentation.

Smart Board Resources  (if you want the software, you can plug into our board and download it.)

Class October 16th

Devotion: Nakiah

The students will:
  • review expectations for the Show and Tell Presentation 10/23 or 26 
  • see a model Show and Tell on Buncee
  • review expectations for the PLN development and see a model 
  • review expectations for the Digital Citizenship Presentations on 11/2 and 6
  • review the upcoming blog posts/tasks #16, 17, 18 (Midterm Reflection,  Quality Resources in your content area, Webinar)
  • be reminded of the scope and sequence of the projects and class work  
Handouts given:

Show and Tell Model: 


Mrs. Poling’s Example:       https://www.edu.buncee.com/  Has an app for ipad, chrome, etc.


Purpose: Presentations, invites, posters (in a user friendly, graphic supported EASY interface)
Any age or class could use this.

There is a paid classroom version to set up a class in a safe social interaction set up. I didn’t explore this, but it appears worthwhile.  

Pros:
  • many fonts,colors, backgrounds, graphics, animations
  • these are searchable, so you can find things faster
  • you can add your own but there are TONS of pre-done formats
  • fast and simple creation, and MANY options
  • ADA complaint- can make a voiceover and turn it into a media show.  

Cons:
  • making a link or searching in youtube, gooru, or vimeo seems more cumbersome than needed
  • all items are added in the top or middle and have to be moved
  • many things in beta form

Here’s an explanation of how Higher Ed uses it, here’s how a teacher uses it, and of course App of the Week Review at Haiku Deck And you can use it to improve your digital footprint

Tutorial:  Create a lesson in 6 minutes or less (this is older example it’s easier now)
a handout that shows how

Features:    New features 2015
Best app of the year by  Teacher Librarians 2015

Here’s outside sources  (but they have a blog and TONS of their own real people examples on it)
Uses:
Vocabulary Words, Us History Timeline Review, Learn about media standards

Reviews on EdSurge, NCCE, Graphite

What I had to learn about:Gooru
What is Gooru in 90 seconds  and here’s another app of the week

So Kids could:
  • make ANY presentation, poster, show and tell, book review, timeline, VISUAL you can imagine.
  • share and layer there work with others
  • add voices to this, and make it a movie.

Teachers can do all of the above.  But I love the ease for smart board or I can statement displays, email a buncee as your invite or newsletter, or permission slip, share your students projects…. So many

So Mrs. P's model misses the slideshow aspect, but has the content,and she showed you the examples and had you test it in class.
