FETC 2009 Blog

FETC was 4 months ago and I haven't had a chance to share all of the wonderful tips and tricks that I learned! I finally decided that the best way to share the information was to blog about it. I'll be updating the blog over the next few days until everything that I learned is posted. There are a few posts there now. If you become a follower, you'll receive an email each time I update the blog with new info. The URL is http://fetc2009blog.blogspot.com. I hope you'll find it interesting and also find something that you can use in your work!

Podcasts and Blogger

Lots of educators are using Blogger to extend the school day and communicate with parents. It's great to have a classroom blog where you can post information for your students and parents, display pictures of some of the events in your classroom that day, share study tips, homework help, and so much more. As a result of the online podcasting courses and our Tech Tuesday podcasting workshop, many more teachers are creating podcasts and want to share them on their blogs. A good way to do that is to create your podcast using Audacity or GarageBand, edit it, convert it to an mp3 file, upload it to Internet Archive, and then embed it in a post on your blog. Sounds pretty easy, right? The presentation below will take you through the steps:

Well, some middle school students have posted an updated version that shares their own views in their own words about the place that technology has in their lives. It's eye-opening and thought-provoking. The technology in the video is all about Web 2.0 tools. Click the video below and enjoy!
