Experimental game turns players into poets and writers What do British Romantic Era poets and video games have in common? The answer is Elegy for a Dead World, an unlikely game that leaves the players with “no game to play,” but to explore three long-dead civilizations, observe, and make notes... or stories — or poems — or songs. The three lost worlds feature beautiful scenery, moving music, and are inspired by Percy Shelley's Ozymandias, Lord Byron's Darkness, and John Keats' When I Have Fears That I May Cease to Be. They create a strong, moody atmosphere that becomes the breeding ground for feelings and ideas. The game began in 2013 as a collaboration between Dejobaan Games and Popcannibal. Ziba Scott, one of the creators says, “We have three great Romantic poets — Shelley, Byron, and Keats — and they each wrote these really moving poems about end times, the end of the world.
5 Tools to Convert and Edit The PDF Format Advertisement PDF files are the digital equivalent of the paper document: made to be shared and read, and occasionally filled in like a form, but not really intended to be easily edited. You could argue the format is outdated in our increasingly post-paper world, but PDF documents aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Google for Education: Bringing Learning Online Today’s students are increasingly showing a preference for an always-on, always connected environment for work and play. Ideally, your delivery of educational content should reflect that growing preference, with an engaging, digital curriculum. Your new web tools should be directly relevant to each user’s needs, and practical (as well as hassle-free) for them to employ. The tools should also align with the school’s core processes and existing systems. By working with teachers and staff, including the ICT director, you can address some of your school’s challenges – including the need to perform time-consuming administrative tasks, and grade tests and papers by hand – and show how they can be overcome with automated, efficient web tools.

5 Best Prezi Presentation Alternatives by PowToon! In the last couple of years many people have been searching for innovative ways to create executive, unique, and memorable presentations. PowerPoint was exciting in the early days of its launch, but too many boring presentations led to the creation of new softwares like Prezi.

Soundbites for the Classroom In a time-stressed world, it seems that soundbites are all we have time to pay attention to. On public transport, in the media, and yes, even in the classroom. One of my regular routines is to project soundbites (or more commonly referred to as quotations) on the board as students walk into the classroom and settle down to a lesson. In other contexts I have used music, these days however, I tend to use visual images to indicate a different space, a change of pace, a moment to transit from the outside world into the rhythms of practice and learning. Sometimes there is a nudging to remind students that success is a result of dedicated work; other times, an image with words can turn on smiles and lighten up the burden of having to sit for another hour and focus on learning. If you use a LMS such as Edmodo, you can also post quotations to the group and ask students if they agree/disagree or what else they would add.
