Vad kan man göra mer med AirServer? | Gästbloggen När jag började använda Airserver höll jag i en presentation över hur jag tänkte att man skulle kunna använda airserver tillsammans med projektorn i undervisningen, dessa appar använde jag som inspiration till kollegor: Explain everything: Utmärkt som whiteboard, man kan lägga in en webbläsare som man kan ha aktiv eller rita på. Finns flera alternativ till denna såklart som Show me eller Educreation, men det är nog mer en smaksak eller tillfälle som avgör vilken man vill använda. Google Drive: Använder google apps på jobbet, så uppgiften kan ges där/bygga upp i introduktionen och sen dela dokumentet med eleverna. TeachersPick: SlumpApp. Man skriver in gruppens namn, som slumpar elev eller elever med valda direktiv. Moji Klocka: Jobba med klockan tillsammans, skicka runt iPaden i klassrummet för att diskutera och hjälpas åt att ställa in klockan rätt. Elementary school math: Bara för att påvisa att man använda matteappar till gruppdiskussion. Probability tools: Sannolikhet!
iMovie for iPad – Storyboard help sheets for trailers | Tech-Info-Maths T.I.M. iMovie for iPad – Storyboard help sheets for trailers Saturday, 30 June 2012 16:13 Written by Tim CC Jonathan Kos-Read via Compfight I did a quick search, delving a few pages deep in the results, but couldn’t find what I wanted. These sheets will also be useful if there is limited access to iPads. If you do make these available to students, I’d love to know that it is useful.

Knowmia Teach Is a Great App for Creating Lesson Videos Knowmia is a website and an iPad app for creating, sharing, and viewing video lessons. The Knowmia Teach iPad app is an excellent app for creating your own whiteboard videos in the Khan Academy style. I have found the Knowia Teach app to have far more creation options than the similar Showme and Educreations apps. Some of the highlights of Knowmia Teach app include the option to use your iPad’s camera to record yourself while drawing on the whiteboard. You will appear in the corner of the screen so that your students can see you while you’re talking them through the lesson. The app includes the option to import images and graphics from your iPad to your lessons. All Knowia Teach lessons can be uploaded to the Knowmia website with just one tap of your iPad’s screen.

Airserver! – Hur har jag klarat mig utan alla dessa år? | Gästbloggen Efter sommaren 2012 började jag ett nytt jobb på Vittra Telefonplan som matematiklärare för år 4-6. Skolan har en tydlig IT-inriktning då eleverna har en varsin dator från år 4. Med tillgång till dator, iPad och projektor kan man ju inte låta bli testa olika IKT-verktyg för att se hur detta påverkar eleverna och hur man kan nå det omdefinierade lärandet. Jag är ett iPad-fan av rang, inte för att själva iPaden i sig är ett grymt verktyg, utan för att jag som pedagog kan tänka till hur jag på bästa sätt kan använda mig utav nya arbetssätt med hjälp av den. Jag hade hört talas om Appletv, men aldrig satt mig in i hur den fungerade. I min jakt på information ramlade jag över ett program som genast blev väldigt intressant: Airserver! Vad har jag gjort i klassrummet idag med Airserver som jag inte kunde göra tidigare? Framförallt använder jag den som en liten whiteboard i klassrummet för att inte vara låst framme vid den stora whiteboardtavlan.
Using iPad Screencasting for Feedback and Assessment Screencasting is the process of capturing the screen interactions on your computer - usually along with an audio narrative. It's been a very effective method for creating screen based tutorials on computer for a number of years. With the advent of screencasting apps on the iPad, screencasting has now become a great option for the creation of multimedia student presentations. It can be used for any number of student projects such as illustrating and explaining the solution to a problem in mathematics, creating tutorials for apps, commenting and annotating an essay, document or article, and more. Explain Everything supports a wide range of content for creating screencasts Explain Everything There are few screencasting apps that have the tools and flexibility of the Explain Everything app. If however we assume that interactivity and communication are important objectives of the modern classroom, then there's one feature however that's particularly interesting. Using Screencasts for Feedback
Five Reasons I Love Using QR Codes in My Classroom There are so many tools that educators can use to get students interested and engaged in their work. Like most teachers today, I integrate technology into my instruction everyday. I'm lucky to work in a school with one-to-one technology and use iPads with my students throughout every school day. That makes it easy to use QR codes in my classroom -- and there are many reasons I love using QR codes! What is a QR Code? A Quick Response Code is a digital image that can be scanned without the beam of light needed to scan barcodes at the supermarket. What does this marketing tool have to do with education? How QR Codes Can Make a Difference in the Classroom 1. Instead of asking students to type in a long web address where they could easily make mistakes, a QR code will take them straight to a website. 2. We all want to avoid using search engines that might bring our students to the wrong website. 3. 4. Websites like Qurify.com allow you to generate your own QR code for free. 5.
Screencasting Apps for the iPad I recently updated my 1st generation iPad by gifting myself with a 4th generation iPad for Christmas. I had to give this gift to myself because I am the only one who shows Apple the love in my house. It's pretty safe to say that I am completely enamored by my brand new iPad, and mostly it's for reasons other than allowing me to Facebook and tweet from the comfort of my couch. I have listed some of the apps I have found below with a brief review of their pros and cons. Explain Everything ($2.99)This is one of my favorites. Below is a nice video that gives you a good overview of the features of Explain Everything that was not made by me, so you know it's gotta be good. Doceri (Free)This is a fully-featured app that is akin to Explain Everything. Below is a video (again not made by me--you're still safe) that gives you an nice overview of this tool. Here's an overview of ReplayNote I made. Here is a brief video overview I made regarding Doodlecast (again, you've been warned): Update:
Screencasting Apps for the iPad Teaching ourselves, our students and other educators how to use screenshooting (images) and screencasting (video) tools is a relevant skill to have that integrates in so many areas. Think Tutorial Designers (A role from the Digital Learning Farm) or the Flipped Classroom model. Being able to create, share and take advantage of readily available screencasts touch upon so many of the skills (create, communicate) and literacies (network, media, information literacy). Maybe you have never heard about screencasting, have not paid much attention to it and/or have never tried to create one of your own. Or maybe you have plenty of experience in creating your own screencasts and incorporated screencasting into your lessons or assessments before. Maybe you feel screencasting to be a basic, one of the most important or an essential teaching and learning skill for you as an educator or for your students to have. I agree with many others who say that: The first options that I immediately liked was
TeachPE.com - physical education and coaching information site The Best Web 2.0 Applications For Education In 2012 It’s that time of year again when I start posting year-end “The Best….” lists.
