Important+Tips+&+Terms



I'm so glad that you have decided to visit the Wiki and hope that you are a frequent visitor throughout the school year. Throughout this wiki you will find that I have included various types of technology throughout the pages, some which you may be unfamiliar with. I've included a list below with some simple explanations for technology terms and how they will be used on this wiki and in the classroom.

*You can also click on the name of each item to learn more about each topic!!*

__**[|Blog:]**__ A blog like a web site that is composed of posts in a journal format. Blogs allow teachers, students, and parents to share information and interact with each other.

[|Podcast:]A podcast is recorded audio that can be stored on a computer or portable media player. Podcasts can share information and also provide students a chance to listen to themselves read with expression.

[|Survey:] Online surveys are used for teachers, parents, and students to quickly compile data on various topics. I will be using various types of surveys throughout the school year.

[|Video Editing Programs:] I have used Windows Movie Maker to create my own video that documents projects and events throughout the school year. Hopefully by the end of the year, the students can use pictures to create their own movie.
