I had forgotten about TechChicks until I saw them in your list. I want to take a good look at the Library of Congress site. I much prefer authorStream because it preserves links. Here’s a tip for you: authorStream is sponsoring a project called PowerPoint for Peace (http://www.ppt4peace.com/). The images must be original or non-copyrighted and there is only one slide allowed, but if the students are creative with their animations within the slide they can produce some amazing material.

Comment on Geocaching with an iPhone – Part 2 by Fred Delventhal

Yeah, Unklar the process being streamlined like this makes it very easy. I’ve lost some people showing them the multi-steps to download a cache to the GPS device. The iPhone app totally eliminates that.

I recently bought a Garmin 20X for my tablet PC, but I can’t get it to auto-load the coordinates from the geocaching.com website. What a great feature to have available.

Just so you know Lookybook has shut down. I was sad to hear this as I loved their resources.

Comment on Bad Teaching - Losing Touch by Elaine Plybon

I don’t think it’s a conscious decision for me, but I do try to tailor my lessons and delivery to things that my students enjoy. Anytime my students have time to sit and visit while working on projects, I keep an open ear to catch tidbits of what’s going on in their lives, which often translates into ideas for more meaningful lessons. As a science teacher, it is so important to make those connections. I now teach in a virtual environment and I’ve found it is just as easy to discover my students’ interests, this time through the discussion board.

Obama didn’t mention “Riptide” or “Unklar” once in his speech. I’m speechless!

Thanks for the zip file of music. Perfect timing, have students creating some projects and some won’t have time to make their own music or look for appropriate music. I will make your songs available for them.
