Here are the presentations from our Discovery School event at NECC 2009. If you continue to check the DEN National Blog, the tabbed page will be updated as the rest of the presentation are submitted.
Coming Soon! Media Share at the DiscoveryEducation will be found through the Educator Resources tab. MediaShare is a digital media management server; a place to organize internal documents, files, forms, a publishing platform, internal memos, and/or presentations.
This would be nice for presentations and workshops so that all pieces are bundled together on one page and you don’t have to have 10 tabs open. In the description field, you can place embed code, such as VoiceThreads or Glogsters. In addition, you can publish Blabberize, Glogster or other documents here, to keep students from getting lost viewing things on a site that may not be educational (Blabberize as an example). DES has uploaded many presentations from over the years, such as the virtual conference in April. It also includes the chat window that matches the presentation.
There is a direct link to these files from outside the DEN. You can create a complete lesson and give the URL to your students and they can create a user name (anyone can get into the education resources by creating an account), and view what you wan them to see.
When searching for lessons that have already been uploaded by other DEN members, search the DES MediaShare to find information for you such as: 8th grade/images/world languages.
Subscribe by RSS feeds as well. Especially if you like one person’s resources and want to know when they post something new.
Can anyone keep up with Twitter? On a normal Twitter day, my PLN is always busy, but during NECC, well, the outage amps up and flies faster than double ground-strike lightning. From the folks at Common Craft collaborating with members of their Explainer Network, SayItVisually, comes a cool video, Skype Explained Visually.
This post is part of some changes coming soon from our LC bloggers. Whether we call it Tech Tuesdays, 2.0 Tech, or Web 2.0 Wednesdays, we hope to feature a tech tool a week. Simple explanations, tutorials, something lean and clean and easily inserted into what you already do. Our goal is (and I’m stealing this one from Brinson) to make phenomenal teaching easier and faster. So, be on the lookout for tech tools that are fast, fun, and free.
Whenever DEN STARS meet, you know you are learning with some of the best in the educational technology business. At our DEN LC Symposium at Discovery Headquarters, and the Pre-NECC DEN Birthday Party, Lisa Parisi was part of the the Leadership Council buzz. A super STAR, a team player, and NY DEN’s LC member, Lisa Parisi just added another award and our DEN community is so proud of her. Join us as we send virtual kudos to our very own Lisa Parisi, ISTE’s Third Place winner of the 2009 SIGTel Online Learning Award with Christine Southard.
THIRD PLACE: Lisa Parisi, Denton Avenue Elementary School, New Hyde Park, NY, USA, with Christine Southard, Denton Avenue Elementary New Hyde Park, NY, USA. Project Title: Poetry Collaboration.
We’re sending out virtual WHOO-HOOs with DEN LC fingers (you’re either in or out on this one) Lisa and Christine’s way. We are so proud of you! You rock!
Thanks to Christine Southard’s post on the NY DEN blog, you can access ISTE’s livestreaming at NECC. Don’t let the first image fool you; go to the second for streaming.
