I had great time learning how to add my voice into my video. The group project we will be having in March, I would like to make a real movie with a video camera.

I am glad we had the opportunity to have hands on to create something we can use and expand on.
I would like to more opportunities to meet and share these technologies

Never thought it would be this easy. I have most of resources at the school, but am so busy with instruction, coaching, science fair, etc. that there is too little time to take to apply the new skills.

I love doing this kind of work and wish I had the time to do it more for my students - NOTICE! it took six hours today to do a fifteen minute lesson; that's rough. But clearly the product is really effective - what's hard is determining which of 180 lessons is deserving of the digital treatment

I loved today's class! For the first time, I truly feel like I have something to take back to my classroom that will be useful and worthwhile! I am anxious to show the kids my new video and I am hoping that it will make next week's math class a little more fun.

I will say though that it was a lot of work. Will I do it again? Not for a short, one-day lesson; but definitely for a bigger project or series of lessons.

I have already used some electronic presentations with my students and they really pay attention, even when the presentation isn't top notch. For the next meeting I would like to see resources available on the web for videos and other electronic options (it would be great if we had our own place to publish our better productions). I would also like to see more on the use of wikis, blogs, and nings in the classroom.

I am amazed that this worked. It was really exciting to see and hear today's lesson. Students learn in so many different ways. Now they will be able to see and hear their lesson. I need to go buy a microphone now.

Wonderfully fun!!!!!!!!
The day flew by because it was so interesting and rewarding.
The next time we meet I would like to review ALL we have learned during our time together....there is just SO much and I want to use it all!
It was very nice to see the same friendly faces...see you next time!

Wow, great to see how all this tech can be put to good use in a math classroom. Students will really be drawn into lessons that incorporate such technology as this. I wish I had computer projection/smart board ability in my classroom. Looks like we will next year though. Until then I at least have a tv connected to my computer, it's just not very big for students to view. And, we're supposed to be teaching 6 classes next year instead of 5, so when will we have time to put together this wonderful technology! I'd love to spend more time learning and using these technologies--the biggest obstacle is finding time to do that! I'm glad though that bit by bit I'm learning more and more about how technology can be incorportated into my math classroom. This was a great learning day!

This is a pretty useful resource. I'm glad I came, since I finally learned how to record, using an iPod. That was awesome. I got to play in paint, too, which is so much fun.

I hope to learn how to create a private podcast for my students who have differentiated needs. Also, to create a safe gaggle for my specific classes. That would be wonderfully useful for my seniors.

Wow! I never thought that I, alone, could finish a project of this magnitude in such a short time. Of course, at about 2:45pm, I was thinking I wouldn't finish, but I am so thrilled with what I did! Thank you! The power of these kinds of presentations is undefinable! I can hardly wait to show my students my project this week as I introduce their new Math project. My ultimate goal is that their project will model mine. They will find information that links to their number and then present it in a PhotoStory movie, complete with narration. I think it is very do-able! I'll report more at our next meeting! I used my microphone for the first time and am very pleased with the quality of the recording despite people all around me talking! I know that students will be able to record in our little "Literacy Lab" room, and produce adequate quality recordings. One thing that I would like to do in March is talk about podcasting and how to get student projects to their iPods (audio if they have nanos and video if they have larger iPods). I haven't tried this yet and would just like a quick demo. Also, I would love the chance to work with video and playing with iMovie. (I just got a MacBook and would love a quick demo). Again, many thanks to Karen and Margie!

I enjoyed having an opportunity to create an audio/video review for my students. I believe our students will respond more favorably to this type of review. I would like for students to take turns adding the audio to certain sections of the review that we could then combine into a chapter review. It would be great if eventually students could do both the audio and visual part of the review.
I would like to see how we can add this type of presentation to Edline, making it available to students and parents. This class has been a wonderful experience. Thank you!

I finally created the project I've wanted to do for a while: an orientation to the library. Before, I was content with Power Point. That's still a good option, but today I did it in Photo Story and added my voice as narration. Margie and Karen helped quite a bit at the start, but then I was able to navigate on my own.

I plan to improve this project by re-recording my voice with a better mic and also add music. In addition, I want to take better digital photos of the media center to illustrate the points made.

I can see myself using this knowledge to talk about different genre of literature and to illustrate the Dewey Decimal System. I want to add music, too, from my husband's Imac!

In March, I'm really looking forward to learning more about Edline and having my own web page. I'll probably want more practice with both video and audio recording and integrating everything. I'm thankful for these follow-up classes! They're essential to get us using these new (to us) technologies. Thank you, Margie and Karen!

You are all so special to me. I count it a blessing that you had me back! Your presentations were awesome!
