Sheila's Digital Storytelling

What might Google Glasses do for the classroom?  This article does a decent job of priming the pump for your imagination.  Put yourself in a place where students all have these, a 1-to-1 Glasses initiative?  

1.  Attention--who gets it and how is it kept?

2. Is this the death of locally directed curriculum? 

3.  We ain't seen disruptive yet until we see a classroom full of these. In fact there won't be any classrooms in the currently accepted sense. Nor teachers, nor students, nor principles.

4.  Whither memorization? No.  These glasses might make it even easier. 

5.  What happens when we put these things into contact lenses or corneal implants?

6.  The advent of the babelfish? 

Have at it and tinker in your mind. 

Stories teach us, inspire us, and allow us to experience worlds we would not otherwise know. We learn about each other through sharing stories.

Present.me is your slides, and a video of you presenting them, side by side on the screen at the same time. It’s the next best thing to being in a room with people you want to communicate with, and as it’s on demand, it’s available for anyone to view whenever it suits them. The potential for Present.me for Educators is endless- it is perfect for the flipped classroom, for students to submit projects, practise their presentation skills and much, much more.

And Present.me is now available in a new multi-user version. As an academic institution you can sign up for a Team account which provides your school, college or university with a private portal in which you can create, view and manage presentme’s. Discover Present.me for yourself here: http://present.me/
