My Personal Learning Network

At the present time my PLN is fairly limited. Sites I've found so far that I think I will use in the future are Kahn Academy , YouTube , TeacherTube , attheteachersdesk , boxoftricks , pbs.org , and free.ed.gov , which has many different resources on one website. I have set up a Symbaloo account but haven't really learned how to use it yet. I will continue to explore the web and when I find something I think is useful I'll add it to my list. I know there is lots of talk about Twitter, but I have a very basic phone for the purpose of staying in touch with my family. My phone won't even send text messages so it's not really Twitter friendly.

Final Project 16 - Geocache

This week I looked at the blog of arvid grover at www.21apples.org. She had a very brief writing about Evernote Peek, a new study aid that works with an iPad. You make a question and answer study guide and put the cover on the iPad notebook. The cover is scored into sections. When you turn up the first section, it shows you the question. When you turn up the next section it shows you the answer. I think this is an excellent way to study and would be very useful for anyone using an iPad notebook.

There was not a new post on this blog so I went to the previous post. This post was relaying information about YouTube partnering with Creative Commons to allow use of videos and music licensed by Creative Commons in the production of your own videos. This would allow incorporating clips of other videos or music into your video without the worry of copyright infringement issues. Just go to the YouTube search box and enter Creative Commons. There is also an online editor to use that can assist you and automatically give credit where credit is due. This could be a useful tool when producing your own videos.
