Intel for Education - Check it Out!

By Anonymous -
Recently I had the most amazing experience.  I interviewed for a case study with some great people at Air.org (American Institute for Research) and Intel for Education.  We had a wonderful conversation about Mobile Learning and technology integration.  

 Today, I want to share with you the Intel Mobile Learning Website.  There are some great resources available for teachers on this site.

 There are 3 main sections:

Each section offers informational articles and research.  For those of us that want to keep up with the pedagogy of instructional technology and mobile learning, these are very helpful and interesting reads.


Another section is called Teachers Engage.

This is a community for educators to connect.  In this section Intel also offers free webinars!  (I've posted about Simple K12's webinars before.)  As I have said time and time again, I LOVE learning through webinars.  They are such a quick and engaging way to keep up with the world of technology and education!  
Other opportunities include sharing resources, and free professional development resources.  


One more thing I am excited to look further into is Intel's new app!  
It is called Mobile Scenarios for K12 App.  This app lets you select and read real stories from educators across all grade levels and subject areas.  Find ideas and specific tools that can be used for integrating technology in your classroom!  I love how the app has teachers sharing ideas for mobile learning that they have used in their classroom.  


There is much more to explore and find on the Intel Education Mobile Learning site.  If you are looking for some great reading material, free tools and resources, and even some videos, Intel Education Mobile Learning is a wonderful site to visit!

Poetry Month is Right Around the Corner Are you getting ready for Poetry Month in April? If so, I have some resources to share with you for creating concrete poems. Concrete poems are words written in a shape to convey a poem. They look like this: Recently I went on a mission to search for a site to use with a fellow colleague and her students. They wanted to make concrete poetry on their Chromebooks. There aren't many sites that allow the user to actually write words into any shape.  There is the Read, Write, Think interactive for Theme Poetry.  Here is what it looks like. The words can be added inside of a shape. The interactive guides students through the writing process There is a site from WildAboutWoods.org  where a person can choose a shape or draw one of their own and add words inside of the shape. There are word banks to choose from or a person can type in their own words to add to the shape. I like that adding words is as simple as click ...

My Blog Makeover - How I Did It

I love change and and rarely do the same thing over and over.  So a blog makeover was  inevitable .  It takes quite a bit to make a blog look completely different, but I have found ways to make it easier on myself. Here are the resources I used to complete my blog makeover.   I found the background at the Dotty Dot Dot blog.  I chose Summer Sunset and simply had to copy the code and insert it.  I found directions on how to do this here .  I could have use the header (the title at the top of a blog) from this site as well, but I decided it was too plain, so I searched for a different header. Shabby Blogs provided me with a header that fit my background perfectly.  I found directions to change my header here . I wanted to add my blog title to the header, so I used a photo editing site called Fotoflexer .  This was the first time I had used this site and I loved it!  I have since used Fotoflexer for some other projec...
