Tech Tips!


I attended a great technology seminar today with Meg Ormiston.  If you get a chance to attend a conference with her- go!  I have been to two of them now and learned lots of new info both times.  If you can't get to a seminar with her, then check out her book:

I'm going to share a few quick things with you right now.

1.  Reflection app
This is not free, but it is going to be well worth the money I spent on it.  With this app you can mirror your iPad or iPhone to your computer screen (or SMARTboard, etc) so that all students will be able to see it.  It is also possible to record with it.  You actually put the app on your computer instead of the iPad (weird, huh?).  Then, it magically (I'm sure it really does make sense, but I choose to believe it's magic) displays your iPad on your computer screen- I can't wait to use it with my SMARTBoard.  The kids will love it!  You seriously have to check this out if you have an iPad in your classroom.


2.  Symbaloo
Symbaloo is a great way to arrange and save bookmarks.  I love the looks of it because it reminds me of an iPad screen with the little tiles for each webpage.  You can make different web mixes (or tabs) to keep different collections together.  This will be great for the classroom because I can easily keep links for students in one spot.  The ability to have more than one webmix will enable me to have a page for each class (because I teach two grades this year).  I love that I will be able to easily add/change the website available for students.  You can use some pre-made tiles or use your own pictures and create custom tiles.  Here is a shot of a quick page I made for my students to start with.  I made tiles for our class website, school website, AR, SpellingCity, and TumbleBooks.  Pretty empty now, but I'm sure that we'll quickly fill it up!  I'm planning on making it my homepage so that students won't have any problems accessing it.

3.  Today's Meet
This is a fun (and useful) way for students to communicate with you and each other.  Very much like Twitter in that you can only use 140 characters at a time.  (Great way to practice summarizing!)  Click here to join my page and chat.  Leave a comment on how you think you could use this in your classroom! :)

We covered so much more than just these 3 things, but these three are things that I had never heard of before today.  I love learned new things and Meg is such an energetic and fun presenter.  Have you learned any cool technology tools lately?  Please share!
*******************
I almost forgot to update you- I survived my three 5K's in October and I have two scheduled for November.  I have decided that I don't really love running, but I love to run races.  I guess my competitive side is stronger than I thought.  I would much rather run a 5K race than to run by myself.  Good thing I have plenty of them to keep me busy!  
I got a new pair of earbuds today (thanks, Ab!) and I'm in love!!!!  I have never been able to run without my earbuds constantly falling out.  I now have an answer- yurbuds!  They. Are. Awesome.  Seriously.  
If you have a hard time with earbuds, you should definitely check them out.  
Love.

  1. I think that the app for the ipad to talk to the computer is magic too! lol I'm rather behind in technology personally. I don't have any electronics that begin with "i", oh wait, I do have an ipod that is about 4 years old...does that count? ha

    1. Sure it counts! LOL... I used my old iPods as listening centers. I can record myself reading books that I don't have tapes or CD's for and my students can listen to them. :)

  2. Increasing the efficiency of our trucks is something every trucker would
    like to add fleshlight the following links to all of Europe and the world famous Waikiki beach.
    Whether you're fleshlight in standard or scientific mode, a" paper" tally prints each calculation, digital pulp that can be attributed to faster internals in the phone, scrolling through lists, and generally getting any basic tasks done.

  39. Can I Use Skype And Google Hangouts At The Same Time?
    With the Google+ Hangouts app on the Google Play Store, you can now do video calling with up to 10 people at once using Hangouts. On the Google Plus platform, you can add a Skype account to chat with people who aren’t already on Google+. Hangouts is free, but Skype’s basic services cost $5 per user per month.
    Google Hangouts is an extension of Google Talk and is currently being integrated into Google Chat. It allows you to do everything you can do in a regular chat room, including start new conversations and join existing ones.
    Google Hangouts is the free video calling solution from Google. Like other Google services, Google Hangouts has its pros and cons. The biggest downside to Hangouts is that it’s tied directly to Gmail and Google+. While there is no way to transfer a Hangouts meeting to a different device, you can share a link to your meeting with others and set the invitees to receive invitations via email.
    What Is Skype And What Is Hangouts?
    Skype and hangouts are two apps made by Microsoft that are used for video chat. Skype is used for making free calls, and hangouts is used for free video chats. There is no cost involved with using either of these apps, and both of these apps are available on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
    Skype is one of the biggest online messaging applications that allow for voice conversations. Skype is an American company based in Luxembourg. It was founded in 2003 and the company has since expanded to more than 170 countries around the world.
    How To Use Google Hangouts?
    Google Hangouts is an online video conferencing service that is part of the Google Apps suite. Hangouts are a great way to conduct business or connect with friends and family. They allow you to share a live, real-time video stream of your desktop screen along with chat or voice conversations.
    Google Hangouts is a free web application designed to enable live video communication and collaboration between people over the internet. It can be used to create conference calls, meetings and lectures, among other applications. There are two main uses of the tool, both of which are available without logging into the account: chat rooms and video chats.
    How To Use Skype App?
    Skype is a video chat application. Video chatting allows you to see your friends while talking to them at the same time. It is like having a conversation with your friends sitting next to you, but instead of using the phone, you’re on a computer.
