My fellow classmates and I got to experience some new technology tools that can be Incorporated into the classroom. One tool that I thought was really cool was poplet. This can be used as a unique discussion board and unlike Prezi you can embed links within the poplet.
Storyjumper is another cool educational tool that I find to be my favorite so far. With this tool it is done on-line where you can make a 16 page book on whatever you would like. To top it off you can order a hard copy of the book you made.
Another tool i can see me using in the classroom is called wordle. Wordle is a cluster of words and the words you choose or type more often are bigger in size. I can see using this in an Elementary classroom for sight words or respect poster (for an example).
MuseumBox is another tool that I would love to use in my classroom. It's basically a 3D PowerPoint, but you can make a whole lesson developed into one drawer of boxes composed of power points.
I reeeeally don't like prezi. I think it is confusing and distracting. Would you encourage your students in the future to use it?
ReplyDeleteOmgsh, that's so interesting, you can purchase a hard copy of the book you made! Sweet.
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to learn about all the new way we are able to incorporate technology in the classrooms. I think the storyjumper sounds like something that would seem very useful and also catch the interest of many students.
