Jing Project

Today at the math facilitator's technology workshop, we learned about a really neat program that I have never heard of previously. It is not ning, but jing. Jing can be downloaded via www.jingproject.com. Once you have the program downloaded, you can record and capture video/images from your computer desktop screen as you carry out tasks in addition to adding a step by step description of what is going on through voice recordings.

After the intensive review I'm planning between now and April 1, I'm also starting to think of things I want to teach my students when LEAP is over. I'm looking for some interesting projects which involve using Web 2.0 tools. I feel like I hit the mother lode when I found this post in my Google Reader from Kevin Jarrett's Welcome to NCS-Tech! blog and wanted to share it with you.

...97, 98, 99, 100

On February 2, 2009, Ella C. Pittman held the annual 100th Day of School Celebration. As students entered their appropriate hallways, teachers counted them one by one in search of the 100th person.

Voki Avatar Characters for Podcasting

Here is a sample of what you can do at www.voki.com. I just discovered the site tonight so I have not yet used it with my kids. Students will be more excited to create this than a regular podcast of only their voices.
