As part of my job interview for the Middle School Academic Technology Coordinator position at the American School of São Paulo, Brazil, I was asked how I would re-design a class for 6th graders, en...
Beth Dichter's insight:

Check out how one might design a technology course for 6th graders if your goal is to use "LEARNFLOW which supports the unconscious, smooth and effortless flow of learning."

This post provides a visual of how a course designed with LEARNFLOW in mind might be organized. It is based on Alan November's work on tutorial creation which "empowers learners...to become creators and contributors."

The image above may provide you with ideas on how you might work with students this school year with technology.

Annotate the Web with Popcorn Maker | screencast tutorial - The Digital Shift | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it

"Popcorn Maker, a tool for enhancing and remixing Web video from Mozilla, holds a lot of potential for educators, according to Linda W. Braun. The library consultant and educator, who created an earlier tutorial on make-your-own infographics, takes the free, browser-based application for a spin in the following screencast."

Beth Dichter's insight:

If you have wanted to learn how to use Popcorn Maker check out this video tutorial. Learn how to use the drag and drop, insert text, images, Google maps and more. Final projects may be shared (that does require that you create a log-in) and embedded in web pages. Braun's final comment is "“For school and public librarians, teachers, and parents who work with kids and teens, there are a lot of possibilities."
