This week's post may be review for some of you, but I feel so strongly about the message that I feel it bears repeating: seeing IS learning. These two short screencasts explain why and how to make learning in your classroom more visually engaging in ways that improve student learning.
Part 1: Why?
Part 2: How?
After viewing the screencasts, suggest a way you could apply (or have applied) the learning in own classroom.
(In the screencasts I make reference to Creative Commons licensing. You can learn more about that here: http://10techsecondary.blogspot.com/2010/04/week-9-copy-right-with-creative-commons.html. I also suggest a way students can make digital flashcards for their iPod.
