If you missed last night’s Teachmeet EdTechRoundup, never fear! You can catch up by watching the archived stream.
The stream has been split into 12 parts – my bit is mostly at the end of episode 3 with a short bit (sadly cut short by being camelled) and follow on in episode 4 . I’ve embedded those episodes below – the rest can be found
here. Well worth watching – loads of interesting presentations; something for everyone :o)
And Flickr photos of participants are
here.
This evening I will presenting at Teachmeet EdTechRoundup on the above subject, sharing how I use sound recording in my classroom and suggesting why it is such a valuable tool.
Here are some references / notes that go with what I will (might?) say!
s talking postcards and talking photoalbums.
Audacity – free and downloadable from
hereGarageband (for Macs)
Podomatic – a free place to create and listen to podcasts
And we’re on iTunes too!
Voki – we love Voki at WCPS!
Voicethread – another great tool for using sound recording in learning.
Here’s one I made to give people an idea of how they work!
Our school wikispace-
WCPS.wikispaces.com – giving examples of use in other areas of the curriculum eg RE, Literacy.
