Google Apps - Presented in Prezi

I created a mini-library to house some important videos for those who are interested in using Google Apps. Prezi is an online presentation tool that changes the way people convey information. Check out my 1st presentation below:

Notebook Lesson Using Discovery Education

Discovery Education is a great service that enables teachers to show video segments and photo clips from various content areas and topics. The link below is a Smart Notebook lesson on Gettysburg created by Jeannine Shields using images from Discovery Education. Students can definitely benefit from this lesson because the images provide them with a visual representation of the battle, where it took place, and the people who were involved.

Timeliner 5.0

This technology is neat and can really add to the learning environment. Students who are visual learners can really benefit from using this technology. I advise that you check out the website and watch the video.

The only problem I have is that there are links to a free download; however, it does not seem as if it is free. Free or not, Timeliner 5.0 definitely seems like a reasonable purchase that teachers would definitely take advantage of!
