Breaking Bad moments

SCIENCE, MR. READ, SIENCE!!

Final ideas.

A presentation used to share my ideas with the group about how I would maybe use some of the web tools I have learnt about this week.

Amara Video Subtitling

More stylish and creative online magazines.

A mag created with Madmagz.

Spicynodes Mind Maps

Interactive mind maps that require the viewer to click around and explore. Potentially very useful, but not as fluent as some iPad apps. Requires a high bandwidth to run efficiently which may cause problems in some schools.

Tricider

Group feedback, voting and comments.

Lunapic.com

Photo editing software. Enables adding animations etc to enhance images.

Superlame.com

Superlame.com image editor. For engaging pupils with artwork and historical images. Easily done with paint, but looks more professional. 

ClassMarker Tests

Potential HL tasks, easily completed and self marked to a certain extent. Free form answers require manual marking, but all others self mark. You cannot save results from embedded Tests with the FREE account. Only Tests assigned to pre-organised groups can be marked and results collected.

Must create user groups for students, providing sign in details for each student in order for them to sign in and complete the test. In my opinion too many limitations and complications for regular use when easier alternatives are available (e.g. Google Forms).

Issuu eBooks

A short example, but any word document or PDF can be converted to an online eBook. Another way for pupils to publish and share their work. Unsure of usefulness but possibly worth trying out.

Dipity Timelines

Great for research activities. Enables group sharing of ideas, collaboration within a whole class or smaller groups. Students working together to reach a common goal, with all posts accountable to individuals.

Memorable Moments in Science on Dipity.

Glogster interactive posters

Takes a bit of time to get used to, but a lot of potential here.

Pixton Comic Strips

Definitely addictive, and I am sure lot's of pupils would really enjoy it! Limited with it's characters, scenery and props, but good fun!

helloslide.com keywords

Gives you the idea! Something students, both English and EFL, can watch and listen to at home.

Learning Through Web 2.0 Social Technology

Very useful for EFL students. Could be used to teach keywords and pronunciation in Science.

Initial thoughts on the Web 2.0 Tools

I have experience of Prezi already, and agree that it is a more exciting way to present feedback and ideas to an audience. I like that you can share the finished article with others for them to view at their own leisure.

I have never created a blog myself, and instead use facebook as a way of communicating with students in a secure environment. I believe finding ways to engage the 21st Century learner is really important within education today.

Here is a Prezi I made when on another project with the British Council:
