Extra Training from the HP Teacher Experience Exchange

The HP Teacher Experience Exchange is a great place to learn new skills, brush up on old ones, or share your own.  Best of all, it's free.  Check up on the available courses at the HP Teacher Experience Exchange.

Stixy - Sharing for students and/or teachers

I have been using Stixy for a couple of months.  Three other teachers and I have used it to update each other on projects we do with our students.  By mid-week, I will be involved with another small team.  I also intend for students in my Tech Club to use it for project collaboration.

I sent invitations to each of you, hoping you would give it a a fair evaluation.  Perhaps we could use it to share activities with our staffs or as a discussion forum for various questions.  At any rate, check out Stixy and share your ideas.

Thanks,

There is a good Blog function incorporated into the design of the web pages. Perhaps this Slideshare* will provide a bit of encouragement.

*Slideshare may be blocked at school. I will post a request on Eduphoria.

This article, by Joe Bower, describes how he creates screencasts in his classroom. The tools he uses are simple and free. Perhaps using these tools would help us create lessons for Tech Bytes that could be posted as resources here. What do you think?
