Wow, another great day! Thanks for helping me put all the music on my presentations. I love the second PowerPoint I created Today and can't wait to share it tomorrow!

I created powerpoint project #2 today. It's getting a bit long...tomorrow I think I'll stop adding slides and try to add a bit of music to a couple of slides. Hopefully I can find some good '30s jazz to slide in.

You said we could even suggest a site that wasn't related to our class project, so...if you haven't tried this one already, look up Zillow.com It will instantly tell you what your house is worth, along with your neighbor's house prices (it also displays an aerial map of the location).

I made progress on my power point for study skills. Elana was very helpful coming up with ideas to make it more visual.
I have been dreaming of getting my VHS tapes of my parrots changed to a digital format for over a year. Today you made my dream come true! I am so grateful, thanks. I will think about resources tonight and bring some to share Friday.

Another great day of learning!
I know many of you already are aware of this website, but for those who aren't...you can find pre-designed rubrics on: http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php
You can modify these or create your own unique ones.
You'll find seven templates for multimedia rubrics on this site.
Registration is only required if you want to save a rubric on their website for future use.

Kim Commando has a radio show on weekends featuring tips on technology. She also has 4 daily e-newsletters which simplify and keep you up to date with the latest and best ways to work with technology. http://www.komando.com/newsletters/
For learning more about graphic software, Sue Chastain at About.com runs a practical and innovative column as well as e-newsletter.
For a great collage tool, demo the one at lumapix.com for free for 30 days. It is very intuitive and fun to use as a way to dazzle your friends with your photos.

This has been an amazing class. Thank you everyone for supporting my growth and Conn for your wonderful knowledge and kind ways of teaching us. I will never forget this class. I learned so much and really advanced in my comfort with multimedia.

Con, it's been a wonderful workshop. Thanks for everything you've taught, allowing us to take it all in "individually", and allowing is to putter and expand on our knowledge in ways that fit "us" in particular. You've done a wonderful job!!

I chose to spend my time on Powerpoint and Photoshop since I have done movies before and they simply sit on my shelf. I would like to learn the movie program, but felt a bit overwhelmed by it and was too scattered to learn it today. Good day.

I dont have any links for powerpoint or photoshop types of work..My sites are all related to literacy work. One non related site is readinglady.com who has lots of links for comprehension work and fluency with reader theater scripts.
I am learning as much about computer system strategies as I am about the specific programs.
Am thnking about how these programs can fit into literacy work

Doesnt look like my post went through so I will try again..Have learned so much, as much about the use of the computer in general as with a specific program
all my bookmarks are geared toward literacy..here are two: readinglady.com and starfall.com. The first has readers theater scripts and comprehension strategies and the second has animated beginning reading books to practice phonics in reading.

I guess my post did go through but here is my last words..
What a learning experience that will impact my own thinking about instruction and problem solving. I was in a state of disequalibrium and wanted to just have some one tell me how..but by struggling through I am more independent and will probably transfer and keep using my new skills. Thanks a million

Thanks, Con, for the terrific introduction to Photoshop Elements. I'm so excited about working with it more and delving into aspects of photography/art. This workshop was inspiring and challenging and I'll be watching for more classes offered through ESD to build on things I've learned this week. Also,thanks to my class colleagues for some great leads to helpful websites, like del.icious.us. I foresee lots of possibilities with it next school year...streamlining information distribution to other teachers and parents in my school.Elena told me about lumapix for collage work and with my new interest in Photoshop I'm anxious to check it out.
Keep up the good work, Con, in helping the rest of us expand our knowledge of technology.
