Pinterest is a really good idea for kindergarden teachers because there are so many ideas to do outside and inside the classroom. There are a variety of options and activities you can choose from. You can never go wrong with Pinterest when looking for lessons to do in class.

Google+ is a very good way to interact with students when you are in a online class or when you need help with a project you can easily video chat with a friend from class or message them and ask them questions.

Wondershare Fantashow is a new app I have used for my mac to make a movie. This can be used in a classroom to make presentations or a certain movie! Today was my first time using it and I would recommend every one who doesn't know how to make a presentation or a movie to use wondershare. It is very easy and fun.

To students who may have questions or concerns when away from the classroom or on the weekends about an assignment of reading, google+ video chat hangout is a great resource to have for communication between teacher and student.

Google hangouts is a great resource. I just found out about it recently and it has helped students out that have missed class and need to speak to the teacher about the activities or what they missed. It is an easy way to communicate for sure with students and teachers.

ReplyDeleteI think as a high school teacher smart boards are very effective with lessons and activities done in the classroom. You can also use smart boards for online classes in case students miss class so that they can go online and see the work that they missed. I used smart boards in my high school and they are helpful and a fun way for teachers being able to walk around the room for students with questions while doing the activity. They arent just stuck at the front or back of the room on an overhead or computer.
ReplyDeleteAnother great resource i just found out was Google docs. It allows for me to share files and folders with my students so that they have an easy way to access their information about the class and activities. I have outlines of the assignments due that day or week. It is easy for teachers to use and students can navigate through it easily as well.
ReplyDeleteStudents, prezi is a great presentation tool to use for projects. I would suggest using prezi over powerpoint because it makes information much easier to understand without cramming it into one slide, it has more effects and the overall appearance of prezi is more professional which will keep your audience more inclined to listen and learn.

Students, If you are looking for what is popular in the world today, the google trends app is a great resource. It tells you what is being searched, and trending and has categories for countries, states, years, etc. You can learn many things such as what was popular in different years in different places which may come in handy for a future project or presentation.

Students check out on google plus with the books search. It goes way more into depth for resource papers that we will have to write in class. It gives more of a variety then just searching online the topic. You can choose different aspects of your search like books, magazine, journals or newspaper articles set back in that time period. I hope that it is as useful for you than it is for me.
