<\/p>\nIt’s the final countdown…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One of the tools I’ve latched onto and used with students this year is Symbaloo. I am really enjoying this tool and it’s applications. While my action plan itself is not centered around webmixes as such, I have introduced it to my colleagues as a part of the package I think might help advance growth mindset and 21st century learning\/facilitating skills. Right now I am not harnessing it fully, but I am already planning on having it embedded in my curriculum next year (and hopefully on actual sites). I am also helping our BTT teacher to use it and have students embed webmixes in their made-from-scratch html websites\/pages next year. Students really enjoy customizing their research and in my Gr. 11 Tech Design class a student has found a series of excellent ‘how-to’ videos for 3D drawing\/modelling in AutoCAD… something I am excited to learn from!<\/p>\n
So although I am still in a discovery phase with\u00a0Symbaloo, I think I need to just bite the bullet and use a webmix\u00a0for my action plan presentation. The idea came to me a while ago after I used it as a preamble to my staff meeting twitter activity, but for some reason I have been a bit hesitant.\u00a0Mostly because it requires ripping off the aforementioned band-aid (see my previous post<\/a>) and diving in, but also because I am always questioning myself for what the best method of presentation is. Hopefully this will give me the flexibility I\u00a0crave, with an interactive format that is easy to navigate.<\/p>\n Thanks to the Google Hangout crew from this evening, and @jmedved<\/a> – get ready, as I am most certain I will have tech questions about this one… \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n This should be a link to the webmix:<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.symbaloo.com\/shared\/AAAABuQCPdgAA42ACt5FTA==<\/a><\/p>\n And this should be the actual embedded webmix (crossing my fingers this works!):<\/p>\n Ta-da! (Maybe not… just previewed and I don’t think the embed-code worked…\u00a0I will fix it aka talk to Justin… and update it again soon!)<\/p>\n Late Thurs. Apr. 23: I have further updated the webmix, although the link should still work above even if the embed code is a bit tempermental, and I am just trying to upload my video. I will see if I can do that here if no where else as I have already linked back to this post… and I am not able to because it is too large! Ok… take two…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Ok so I think I have it figured out… but just in case here is the link to my google slide deck <\/a>as well. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hope it works!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s the final countdown… One of the tools I’ve latched onto and used with students this year is Symbaloo.
