WolframAlpha (John)
YouTube in PreCalculus (John)
Students made video presentations of 3rd Quarter
Challenge Problems
Good point: No class time given up for presentations,
can look at them at any time
Bad point: Some presentations were short on content
and long on multi-media fluff or students simply read
their paper.
WolframAlpha in PreCalc (John)
Students used website to check homework when
textbook did not supply answers.
Students used website to help solve Challenge
Problems
Unfortunately, students often missed the point of
problems. The process was more important than just
getting an answer.
Multimedia Digital Real Estate (Dee)
organizes: videos, audio files,
Google Sketch Up screenshots,
thank you letters etc.
Why? So What? (Dee)
Saves time: students can
simultaneously upload and
comment
Communication: Parents etc.
w/out Google account, even RSS
