DIGITAL TOOLS FOR THE CLASSROOM
Three digital tools that can make an immediate impact in your classroom:
Digital camera
Digital video recorder
Document cameraELMO is the most common one found in Seaford classroomsAVerMedia document cameras are on the way!
Can be used to take pictures of students in action
The images can be inserted nicely into PowerPoint presentations
Adding student pictures into a PowerPoint presentation gives them a feeling of ownership
Pictures help make presentations more interesting (See how much more interesting this slide iswith my two sons Evan and Shane?)
Can be used to capture student responses to share with others, presentations or other projects.
Embed videos in PowerPoint presentations
May need to convert files to .wmv files (come to my Media Conversion presentation tomorrow morning)
