Interesting hearing about making a classroom as paperless as possible - using Google Apps, a flip cam (I wonder if we have one in school). I love his quote about classrooms become a tree eating machine! I like the way Jason goes through to describe how he has made his social studies class paperless, assigning the classroom in the computer lab. His focus is Moodles - touting the flexibility of the program. Teacher tube, Bubbless, ODO, Bubblemaps, xtimeline, igoogle, voicethread. Am going to have to investigate all of these. Scribed, slideshare - use for Office docs - puts into pdf.
Moodle, igoogle rss feeds, delicious social bookmarking, voicethread
Assessment tools - traditional and whizzler & studio
Paperless
Accountability - teacher & student
Increased engagement
Results, success and failures
Criticisms - access to technology - both in school and at home - each with his own
Implementation speed of tools - too fast and too slow
Lessons learned -
Don't do it all at once! Don't use all tools at once.
Partnerships with students.
Embracing failure
Definitely worth viewing
