23 Technology Things: Week #14 - Module #4 - Etiquette
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009/11/module-4-etiquette.html
Monday, November 30, 2009. Week #14 - Module #4 - Etiquette. I am impressed by the amount of literature that has been printed and posted regarding only etiquette! Much of what I understand about netiquette is common sense. I like how Virgnia Shea, author of the online book. First chapter "Remember the Human". It seems that is what all forms of communication boils down to. Was featured in a PBS video titled Growing Up Online. It was very powerful if anyone is interested in checking it out. Good point abou...

23 Technology Things: Week #10 - Module #1
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009/11/week-10-module-1.html
Thursday, November 12, 2009. Week #10 - Module #1. First, I am so pleased to at last be receiving some direct instruction on the subject of assistive technology. When I earned my undergraduate degree I was not required to take any special education courses to graduate and I regret not having taken any as electives. Thankfully, since I graduated in 1995, the requirements have changed and all education majors must take some special education coursework. Now to focus in on the task at hand. Challenge studen...

23 Technology Things: Week #11 – Module #2
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009/11/week-11-module-2.html
Monday, November 16, 2009. Week #11 – Module #2. This weeks’ exploration of assistive technologies was very eye opening. When I worked as an elementary school teacher I had students who used some assistive technologies, but that was 5 years ago and it seems like the technology has come so far since then. This is not surprising, of course. I couldn’t believe the head mouse and virtual keyboard. Genius! There is so much educators can do to improve the learning environment of students with special needs.

http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 17, 2009. Two Best Readings of the Semester. By far my favorite text this semester was Courtney's. Library 2.0 and Beyond. I enjoyed the collection of articles. It was a refreshing departure from a banal text. I also appreciated that the information was current and provided a concrete ideas and websites for reference. The two chapters I most enjoyed were chapter 4,. By Chris Kretz and. Mashups and Web Services. Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Flip Camera - Web 2.0 Presentation. The holiday...

Tuesday, December 1, 2009. Week #15 - Module #5 - Curriculum and Evaluation. The holiday season is upon me and in an effort to stay ahead of the game I am posting a bit early.

Do you plan to read or recommend some of the Recommended Reading books or add them to your collection? Will you link our LibraryThing list to your blog? I posted a review for the book. I am al...

23 Technology Things: Flip Camera - Web 2.0 Presentation
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009/12/flip-camera-web-20-presentation.html
Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Flip Camera - Web 2.0 Presentation. It's also a breeze to upload Flip videos to your blog, wiki or other social networking site. Although it is a bit time consumming. December 18, 2009 at 6:01 AM. Michelle that is TOO CUTE! Thank you for cheering me up this morning while I read class blogs. Our library just bought a bunch of flips and I am going to play with one over the break. Fun! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Two Best Readings of the Semester. View my complete profile.

23 Technology Things: Module #3 - Software
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009/11/module-3-software.html
Monday, November 23, 2009. Module #3 - Software. The assistive technology software I broswed this week was very impressive. Watching students use the iCommunicator tool was so cool! It's amazing how one device can change a person's world. Its also interesting to note that disabled persons are always trying to keep up with the latest technologies to better assist them. This must be costly and perhaps even tiresome, but exciting, as well. November 30, 2009 at 11:10 AM. Good point about categories of info.

23 Technology Things: September 2009
http://23technologythings.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. I especially like that you can create a search widget. This is very handy if you want to embed your search bar into a wiki or website. Unfortunately, I was not completely satisfied with Roll-yo. It was far too slow to do any function, particularly the search. I can't imagine teenagers waiting as long as I did for searchroll to conduct a simple search. I consider myself patient person, but the length of time it took to do anything was a bit ridiculus. I tried using Image Che...
