On Writing and Reading...

In an age overwhelmed by information we should view this as a crisis, because the ability to read, comprehend, and write—in other words, to organize information into knowledge—can be viewed as tantamount to a survival skill.

Screen Cast: What a Blast!

For this task, I chose to teach my students how to find our course vocabulary on Quizlet. For various reasons, I do not require my students to have an account, so often they have difficulty locating the course and flashcards. For the screencasting, I selected Screenr, as I felt like it was the least complicated. My recording did complete with only one try! A miracle for me! Although, I did muck up the audio a bit by repositioning myself about halfway through the presentation. I will continue to use Screenr and post it on my website for students who need several exposures or explanations to course content.

  2. I like how you used Quizlet to help the kids with vocab. I think that is a great website too. I think that will be very helpful for the students.

  3. This is a great demo and will be very helpful for both students and parents. I'll show you the Smart Notebook Recorder equivalent as well. You might also like to try that.
