Presentating at CCA in Wilmington

Getting ready to go to participate in a panel discussion at the CCA conference in Wilmington, NC. entitled “What the Tech?” about using blogs in teaching communication.  I have collected resources for the talk including some really great articles on ways to use blogs in classes including some good grading ideas.  Check out my Diigo site at http://www.diigo.com/list/benignim/caa

kayla’s review of tech4learning frames

Hi my name is Kayla Tripp and i am job shadowing Mrs. Mendi Benigni. I am in the 7th grade. And i go to West Ashley Middle School. Or for all you adults out there (The Old Middleton.)
I was helping her look at a few softwares. One that i recommend is Tech4Learning.
You can chose from five different things to use (frames, image-blender, pixie 2, twist, and web-blender.)
I used Frames. I think anybody could use it. It could work for a quick commercial or advertisement, or a movie for your teaching. Even if you like doing something for fun. Also if you can’t find something you want on the program or they don’t have it. There is a way to search the thing you want from you computer.

From Mendi – to go further with this, Tech4Learning also has a great copyright-friendly image/clip art repository. It’s very K12 oriented.  Check it out at Pics4Learning.com!
