Parent Message Example Edmodo.com is a tool that is used almost daily during quarters 3 and 4 when we have our literature studies. Think of it as a social networking site (like facebook or a blog or twitter) that allows students to write, explore, share, and analyze in a safe and secure way. Students LOVE the interface that edmodo.com offers and it is extremely user friendly. I would like to STRONGLY encourage parents to join my edmodo.com site so that you can see what your child is doing in my classroom. An email blast and paper handout will go home in late January or early February and you will have the opportunity to request a parent code so that you may log in and see what your child is writing and sharing on edmodo.com.
Interactive Classroom.net | Brought to you by the Geeky Computing Teacher How Has The Internet Changed Education? User Rating: Details Published on Wednesday, 29 May 2013 15:14 Written by Sahiba Pahwa Hits: 106 How Has The Internet Impacted Education? Internet that started as a discovery to view and share some private files over an organization has now spread its wings to all over the world. Surely there has been a lot of changes internet has brought in the growth and evolution of education. Though social media like any other thing has pros and cons but today, over 90 percent of the faculties are using social media in courses they’re teaching. As the times have changed people’s preferences have also changed, where before they liked the usual written material and learning through class walls now only 1 out of 3 academic leaders consider online learning inferior to face to face instruction and 8 out of 10 faculty report using online video for class. Gradually many colleges and universities are offering online courses. Not only the students but the teachers and faculties also use online sources. Img Src
Evernote – an attempt at the definitive summary of teacher uses! Well it’s been just over 2 years since I tentatively pulled out my iPhone in class and trialled using the app ‘Evernote’ for the first time. If it wasn’t love at first use, it sure was close. Since then I’ve blogged about it, talked at numerous conferences about it, posted hundreds of tweets declaring my love for it, and watched countless other teachers who I’ve introduced Evernote to blog about it, tell others about it etc etc. There are many great blog posts about Evernote by teachers that explain ways that they use it (Miss Spink On Tech is a particular standout), but I’ve never quite found everything all in the one post. What is it? Evernote’s iPad toolbar Uses Easily Capture and Store notes, photos, audio of student performance: The power of Evernote comes in how quickly and easily the user can capture an observation and store it in an easy to search filing system. You may then have that same student read for you later in the week. Create Checklists Running Records Personal Notes
