Learning Centers

Posted by Brenda Branson

Just got back from an OEC meeting to plan  our library media conference for October 2008.  We have lots of great sessions in the making and Debbie Jarrett will be one of our speakers.  It really got me thinking about how to incorporate Web 2.0 with United Streaming.  A few of our teachers are setting up  learning centers simply because of the diverse levels within each classroom.  I am planning a training session on using DEN to create learning centers and had originally planned to do a simple activity with a video clip, images or audio files.  I’m thinking about other Web 2.0 ways for the students to complete assignments and projects for their center work. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far:

Blogging

Podcasts

Puzzlemaker 

Time Line Maker

Tags

Instant Poetry Maker 

PBWiki

    Don’t forget Voice Thread! Terrific tool for kids with their education side of the program.

  2. Brenda Branson Said,

    Great! Thanks and I’ll add that to my list. You know, this really should be a Wiki!

  3. Deb Said,

    Great Blog! I may use the video to share with staff at my high school.
