Digital storytelling is a powerful way to engage students in the writing process. Whether they are telling stories from a summer vacation or writing a persuasive essay on a community issue, technology tools can help motivate reluctant writers. Students can use their writing, audio recordings, video creations, illustrations, and images to create a digital storytelling product that demonstrates their understanding of a concept.

The dramatic increase in online education, particularly massive open online courses (MOOCs), presents researchers, academics, administrators, learners, and policy makers with a range of questions as to the effectiveness of this format of teaching and learning. In early 2013, the impact of MOOCs had been largely disseminated through press releases and university reports. The peer-reviewed research on MOOCs was minimal. The MOOC Research Initiative (MRI), funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, addressed this research gap by evaluating MOOCs and how they impact teaching, learning, and education in general. This special issue reflects the research questions and methodologies deployed by MOOC researchers over the past year and represents the current front line evaluation of how open online courses are impacting education. http://www.scoop.it/t/easy-mooc Via Lucas Gruez

Who are the top 5? 1. Google Apps for Education: 40 million students/educators can't be wrong-and it has Google Docs and no ads.. 2. Twitter: It's become a place for growing a personal learning network (PLN) among educators and is used in the classroom as well. 3. YouTube: With tons of channels that can help educators, it's the place both educators and students love. 4. Edmodo, like Google Apps for Education, has over 40 million members. It's free and has many options to provide content and assessments for students. 5. Remind made it into the top 5. “Think of it as a combo of sticky note and class newsletter for the digital age,” writes nprED reviewer Elissa Nadworny. “Remind allows teachers to send messages — via email, cellphone, iPad or Android device — to an entire class with the push of a button.”
