Educational Technology and Mobile Learning: 6 Good Educational Web Tools to Teach Writing Through Comics
March 2, 2014 Writing is a tedious cognitive act that is intellectually demanding for students.The approach we teacher and educators adopt towards writing makes the different between a real engagement and apathy. Students usually view the writing process as personally revealing and thus they loose any kind of connection with it. Our job as teachers is to build this connection between student writers and the writing practice through engaging them in real and authentic tasks that speak to their immediate environment and provoke their intellectual curiosity. Using comic strips is one powerful way to get students excited and motivated about the writing act. Students love to interact with visuals and tools such as the ones listed below will empower them to do just that. Here are some of the best educational web tools that students can use for creating comics and engaging in written discussions around different topics and stories. 1- Scholastic story starters 2- Make Beliefs Comix 5- Chogger
Mind maps ideas
In everyday life, you will encounter several occasions that require the creation of a wish list, with gifts for you or another beneficiary. December is a great month to talk about presents and a good opportunity for me to explain how mind mapping can really help you to manage such an activity.It’s December, the month of gifts. In Belgium, Saint-Nicolas is bringing toys to kids who have been kind during the year. It’s also Baptiste (my son) birthday. In other countries, Santa Claus will visit the children later in the month for Christmas. I don’t know how you proceed on your side but, on our side, kids traditionally prepare themselves a wish list of gifts (toys, books, clothes …) which they send to the old man. I had an idea how mind mapping could help us to better manage the whole stuff, keeping the pleasure at the centre of our considerations. A very efficient structure At the centre of the map, the idea was quite obvious: something like "What do I want to receive from Saint-Nicolas".

Inserir texto nas imagens
PicFont é um serviço web que permite a adição de texto numa imagem, num quadro “branco” ou outra cor definida e ainda, em algumas das formas que o serviço suporta. A imagem pode ser adicionada do nosso computador ou via URL da mesma. A adição de texto num dos três elementos referidos é feita de forma muito simples e a manipulação do objecto gerado para o texto ainda mais simples é. O serviço contém imensas fontes, que podem ser personalizadas quer no tamanho quer na cor, permite rodar o texto e cria dois efeitos muito profissonais(outline ou shadow) no texto. Qualquer texto adicionado torna-se um objecto que pode ser arrastado e eliminado sempre que se pretender. Percebe-se que o serviço já é antigo, mas a forma simples como deixa inserir e manipular o texto agradou-me imenso já que permite adicionar e testar à vontade. Boas criações!
