Researching Collaborative Sites



Just doing some research and trying to find a way where students can collaborate and work together on projects. Now we know that Google docs is an option and students can collaborate with documents whatnot. But I really like Zoho Notebook. Zoho Notebook allows for audio and video embedding in the actual online page and then allows for playback and sharing. It's so much more than a conventional notebook.  You have to see this resource for yourself!  It's a must use!

WiiMotes in School!!! Great Low cost option for IWB



I just got finished configuring my Wii remote and my laptop computer with the bluetooth connection and found out that it was extremely easy to do to create a instant interactive white board device with the Wii remote and infrared beam that actually detects a signal and allows you to create any wall space on. The board or wallspace then becomes an interactive device. It's really easy you have to try it go to wiiremoteproject.com and read the instructions and watch the video tutorial and give it a shot. $45 and plus maybe $7 charge for an IR device. Pretty cheap pretty inexpensive when it comes to purchasing something really inexpensive to hang on your wall. Check it out.

Showing My Colleague Dial 2 Do



Sitting here with Jill Machemer. It's our second day at the CAIU and we're just talking about some things we're going to be working on. I wanted to show her dial2do so she can learn how to post right to her blog or a twitter account live from your cellphone. Yep, she's losing it!! Anyway, we're going check it out on Blogger in a couple of minutes.
