"With one billion monthly users (and growing), YouTube’s popularity is a pretty clear indication that video is a powerful medium. And kids’ unrelenting fascination with videos is motivating many educators to find ways to leverage them for all kinds of purposes. But the best ways of using videos are not always obvious. Teachers want to know: Among all the millions of videos out there, how do you find the great ones? How do you evaluate the quality of a video? Who are the great content creators, and what are the best curation sites? Which kinds of videos work as fun supplements, and which are best for actual instruction? How do you get students engaged in discussion after watching videos? How do you blend videos into your curriculum?"

"A video introducing blogging buddies and exploring latitude and longitude." 1. We placed the markers and customized the pushpins to a scale of about 5.0. 2. We added an image of each blog by going to: Edit>Get info and adding the image html code in the window. (I did that.) 3. I set the stopping places by going into Edit>Get info...selecting VIEW and then selecting "Snapshot current view" When the pushpins were set, I filmed each section using Camtasia. (Sound off) The next day, the kids added their audio to the Camtasia video.

Helping students learn how to learn: That’s what most educators strive for, and that’s the goal of inquiry learning. That skill transfers to other academic subject areas and even to the workplace where employers have consistently said that they want creative, innovative and adaptive thinkers. Inquiry learning is an integrated approach that includes kinds of learning: content, literacy, information literacy, learning how to learn, and social or collaborative skills. Students think about the choices they make throughout the process and the way they feel as they learn. Those observations are as important as the content they learn or the projects they create.
