Hoopman is Gone: You kids behaving?

Hey kids, at a Web 2.0 workshop right now. It's about doing things like...this: the blog, the wiki, learning about back channel chats, wordle, presentations, and other things on the internets.

You kids should be busy with workday right now, getting things done, and minding your p's and q's.

I will use the blog to post anything of interest I find at the WSST Convention that you can use in class or on your contracts.

You use the blog to post any questions you have about the concepts you are going over while I am away, ask for a wiki page, kindly ask for help with A presentations, etc.

I am always with you. Right here. Watching.

Pics 4 Learning

Free, appropriate, and sited photos you can search for your wiki presentations.

Apparently, siting your images is as important as siting your quoted ideas. Hmm.

Can upload saved photos from Picasa(through school or google) and edit away.

Science is a lot of vocabulary and new words, big words. This might be a visual helper for tough words. Might help with those pesky SAVI presentations.

Thinkfinity

Good. Tons of stuff about science for students and teachers.

John said...

CoolToolsForSchools

Tons and tons and tons of links and info on how to make an A contract using a computer. One or two ideas beyond a powerpoint about a stick figure.

The National Science Digital Library

Vast repository for reviewed sites, audio, images, and video dealing with science with a nice search tool.

Hi Mr.Hoopman how's the workshop. Everyone is behaving for right now anyways! So we can use any of these tools for our contracts?

Addy said...

Are there any planets that have the same grativy as we do?

John said...

Rachel,
Is there another planet with the same mass and size of Earth? Maybe.

Nick,
invisible strings, space is curved by masses, or jus tthe fact that masses are attracted to each other.

Makayla,
Like all things, it takes some practice to become good at it. All those things I posted where things you gys can try out to help present contracts in different ways.

Moses,
Even now.
