Mixbook

I have chosen to do mixbook instead of voicethread. It is a more concrete idea and is easier to communicate to elementary students. Students are more apt to learn from visual images, and mixbook allows this strategy. I am going to choose an idea that I am really excited about doing. I should have a overall structure done by next week.

7th Tech Task Continued

The voicethread is very hard to understand. For instance, I do not understand how the voice exemplar and the lesson plan are mixed. There seems to be a delicate balance between the two. Wait! Dr. Porr is showing us an for Mixbook and VoiceThread. Thank goodness. I need his guidance.

7th Tech Task

I have chosen to do the VoiceThread Curriculum Project. It is a challenging project since I have never done this before. It is comprised of a lesson plan and scoring guide. The scoring guide has two main central ideas. For example, it has an electronic lesson plan and voice thread examplar voicethread. I will need a mic for this voicethread. The electronic lesson plan will be embedded in my.pbwiki.com.

Seventh Tech Task (VoiceThread or Mixbook Critical Learning Piece)

This is a big project. I try to remember one thing about big projects. Take it in small steps. Anything can be handled in small steps. Eventually the big project is completed.
I will take deliberate action with the seventh tech task. For example, I will thoroughly research its main idea and details. I will use Google and Ask. I look forward to the challenge.
