And happily, we’ve found that students love to use video—it’s a format that they understand and that sparks their creativity. Here are ten ideas to try in your classroom today. Make a Book Trailer: Challenge students to design a movie-style trailer that excites their classmates about a must-read novel or nonfiction book. What’s the best video project you’ve ever done?
TeacherTube - Teach the World playdoh planet earth and some babbling too Hello my fabulous readers! Sorry for my long hiatus. I wanted to take some time off to get some Spring cleaning done and start myself on a workout routine. I’m happy to report that I got both done. Since I started this blog I haven’t taken more than a couple days off at a time and it really felt good. Okay, enough babbling, now onto the craft. What you’ll need: play doh – blue, green, black, yellow, orange, red What the earth layers are: RED – inner core ORANGE – outer core YELLOW – mantle BLACK – crust BLUE AND GREEN – land and water They thought it looked cool enough when I just showed them the blue and green planet earth. I actually did get this idea from somewhere on the web, but for the life of me I can’t find where to give proper credit.

Personalized Learning Resources for Mobile Educators I have a 45-minute commute to Knapp Elementary School each morning. Aside from sipping on my coffee, I'll tune into Philly sports radio, some Mumford & Sons or maybe even some local news. However, in December, my commute took a more reflective turn when I discovered an edu-podcast called #EdChat Radio that is now helping me think deeper in a quiet space away from the presence of students, teachers, parents and community members. At the time of this post, there are nine 10-to-15-minute #EdChat Radio posted on the BAM Radio Network's site, the hub of these and other podcast channels produced especially for parents, educators and leaders. Each week, the crew of connected educators -- including Tom Whitby, Steven Anderson, Nancy Blair, Kyle Pace, Brett Clark, Shelly Terrell, Jerry Swiatek, Mary Beth Hertz, Jerry Blumengarten and others -- unpack the week's #Edchat (Twitter discussion on Tuesdays at 12:00 PM EDT & 7:00 PM EDT).

Making a Silent Movie (| Digital - teacher | Education in a technological world) During this half term, I've been busy working with our three lower school classes on a rather special project in their ICT lessons. It all began back in April when I blogged about an app I discovered in the app store that would allow a user to create an aged movie. My brain began to think just how I could incorporate this technology into our planned topic of 'Movie Making'. It seemed too good to be true - crowbarring a video creation app into a topic on movie making? So, my plans began to take shape. However, I quickly threw all of that out of the window, because the BBC showed the first part of a series from Paul Merton all about the birth of Hollywood. Lesson One consisted of watching parts of the Paul Merton programme. In our second lesson we began to sketch out the ideas for the storyline. During the evolution of their work, some of these ideas were amended, or dropped, as they realised that it was either too hard to achieve, or too hard to film.
Digital Video in the Classroom Students are exposed to basics in video project composition. Activities include learning how to build visually effective shots, how to use music to enhance the feel of the presentation, and how to create a movie project that is designed to keep a student’s attention in the context of teaching standards-based material. Review materials, get links from class, and view the syllabus. Email me with any questions. Assignment: YouTube Channel Create a channel (or homepage) for broadcasting on YouTube.

As with computer games, teachers and practitioners are considering machinima’s relevance to education from a variety of perspectives. According to ‘Machinima: Making Animated Movies in 3D Virtual Environments’ (Kelland, Morris and Lloyd 2005), the four most common machinima production techniques are: straight recording, the ‘puppetry’ approach, ‘recamming’ and scripting. Educators working with machinima weigh the advantages posed by different games. References
Rule of Thirds The Rule of Thirds is perhaps the most well known principle of photographic composition. The “Rule of Thirds” one of the first things that budding digital photographers learn about in classes on photography and rightly so as it is the basis for well balanced and interesting shots. I will say right up front however that rules are meant to be broken and ignoring this one doesn’t mean your images are necessarily unbalanced or uninteresting. What is the Rule of Thirds? The basic principle behind the rule of thirds is to imagine breaking an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so that you have 9 parts. As you’re taking an image you would have done this in your mind through your viewfinder or in the LCD display that you use to frame your shot. With this grid in mind the ‘rule of thirds’ now identifies four important parts of the image that you should consider placing points of interest in as you frame your image. Another Rule of Thirds Example
Language, Camera, Action! Motivating Young Learners with Video (by David Dodgson) Back in the sepia-tinged days of 2010 when I was still very much finding my way around blogs and Twitter, I was virtually introduced to Barbara and she kindly offered me the chance to do a guest post here on Teaching Village about how I used PowerPoint in class. 18 months on, we again get the chance to collaborate as part of the EVO 2012 Digital Storytelling for Young Learners team along with some other fantastic educators, namely Shelly Terrell, Özge Karaoğlu, Esra Girgin, Jennifer Verschoor, Michelle Worgan, and Sabrina De Vita (full details are included at the end of this post). As part of our EVO event, I will co-moderate a session about Video Stories with Young Learners with Özge. As a prelude to that, am delighted to have the chance to return to Teaching Village to share some of the ideas I’ve used in class, often with little more than a video-recording device and some editing software – and creative young students of course!

Students create Moodle-based treasure hunt When most people think about using Moodle, the first word that comes to mind is probably not “fun.” But a group of Honors Fellows recently found a creative and, yes, even fun way to use the site—they employed Moodle to run the second semesterly National Treasure Scavenger Hunt for their fellow Honors students. How it began Jacquelyn Lanphear, a senior biochem/psych double major and the Honors Community Director, hosted the treasure hunt for the first time last spring. “I was really excited about the idea of a game that was National Treasure-esque,” Lanphear says, “and my hope was that the scavenger hunt/riddle series would be a fun way to get more fellows to engage in Honors activities.” Last spring, Lanphear and a few other students developed the clues and delivered them to members of the Honors program via email. Crafting clues in Moodle This semester, Lanphear decided to let Moodle handle the grunt work of managing student submissions. Example of a clue on Moodle. Drawbacks Follow Me:
Indicateur d'accélération - Suivi de Webi (page 1) | Systèmes de Trading Posté le : le 06-01-2010 23:17:03 [-] Bonsoir Un membre sympa du site ayant suivi le webi sur " l'indicateur d'accélération' m'envoie un mail privé et me pose quelques questions concernant l'utilisation de l'indicateur. Plutot que de lui répondre en direct - et comme j'écoute un super album de Blues (Willie Dixon / Willi'es Blues) , en ayant (pour une fois) un peu de temps devant moi , - je crée cette file pour lui répondre et ainsi permettre a ceux que cela intéresse - si il y en a - de lire les réponses et de se faire la main avec l'indicateur. ça peut etre utile ;-) Donc , mon copain (On va l'appeller Willie ) me dit grosso modo : "ton truc c'est pas concluant, y'a un truc qui marche pas. Et me donne l'exemple suivant : signal foireux. 2 points de gain théorique. A ce niveau, je vous demande d'arréter la lecture et de réfléchir a ce que vous feriez (ou du moins ce que je conseille tout le temps de faire en situation de trading) . ça y est ? L'UT ou il a repéré le signal est du 5 mn. yes ?
Optimiser une stratégie grâce aux agrégations | NanoTrader Qu'est-ce-que les agrégations? Les agrégations sont simplement des unités de temps différentes. Par ex.: nous tradons sur un graphique en 5 min. mais utilisons un indicateur MACD sur un graphiqe en 15 min pour filtrer nos signaux de trading. Cette approche permet de filtrer ou de trader dans des unités de temps différentes. Dans cette example, nous développons une stratégie sur le Future allemand Bund (FGBL). Dans le paramétrage de notre stratégie, nous avons 3 indicateurs: Le RSI Dynamique qui indique les niveaux de sur-vente & sur-achat;Le Canal Breakout qui montre les mouvements des réelles cassures;L' indicateur Supertrend qui ferme la position lorsque la tendance se retourne. Etape 1: chargement des données Nous chargeons les données du contrat future en 5 min sur 300 jours. Nous plaçons aussi 2 filtres temps: De 00:00 à 08:05 flat, c.à.d aucune position.De 21:55 à 23:59: flat aucune position. Ainsi le trading ne sera possible qu'entre 08:05 et 21:55.
