IdeaPaint - Let Your Students Make Their Mark
This from Angela Maiers - two videos that share the concept of Ideapaint.
This video shows you how to do it. I need to show you pictures of my wall - I wanted to "wiki" the walls of my room and used brightly colored duct tape to designate areas where the students could share information. Perhaps with ideapaint I could do something similar. I love this idea. I think that perhaps next year (or maybe even over Break) I'll use ideapaint to make my whole room writeable - oh so cool!)
Keep It Clean
My good friend @Luke1946 on Twitter (we've also met before - he is SOOOOO smart) pointed me to the resources that he uses to help speed up the boot of computers. WE're having sloowwww boot times in our computer lab and here is where I'm heading.
Multiple Intelligences - Implications
Excellent information on multiple intelligences. I was highlighting this to work on using all intelligences to teach debate.
-
make a speech on a (to them) relevant topic
-
Have the person keep a log or journal about his/her daily
experiences. - 7 more annotations...
YouTube - Do you Teach or Do you Educate?
Great video to challenge teachers. Are you a fire extinguisher or the igniter of a flame?
What kind of intelligence are you?
Take this intelligence test to determine your intelligences and realize that not all intelligence is measured on an iq test.

WebSlides - Turning bookmarks and feeds into interactive slideshows…
I am using this feature at NECC quite a bit - you can turn bookmarks into webslides. It is very useful and helpful!
Goodreads | Educator Book Club
OK, I've been toying around with Goodreads, a website that so many librarians have recommended to me. Thus far it looks a bit like blippr although perhaps easier to use. Enjoying it so far. This particular group seems to be for educators.
Breathings of the Heart...: Project 365
Interesting ideas -- this teacher is setting off on a journey - scrapbooking 365 days of her life. Interesting idea. For me, it may be just another thing to get behind on. It would be interesting to have a school do this and perhaps pass around a scrapbook between classes -- even better, each class has a page. Interesting idea!

Great information on Google Sketchup and a tutorial about how it can be used from the ICT guy as part of their 1 to 1 netbook project.
