Classroom Technology Thoughts (Twitter Weekly Updates) for 2009-11-01

November 1st, 2009 by Mr Kuroneko · No Comments · Classroom Technology Thoughts (Tweets)

  • Is there a way to protect a Google Doc so that collaborators can't publish the document? #
  • Free software to run an online literature circle: phpbb is a great forum but what about moodle which is for teachers? http://moodle.org/ #
  • Moodle seems to be more like an online course with calendars, quizzes (multiple choice and short answer), as well as discussion rooms #
  • Moodle allow nested comments which means when you reply to another comment, it shows up indented. phpBB shows comments chronologically. #
  • Is there a way to run Google Spreadsheets as a database? #
  • How do you scale online literature circles from several classes to several schools without creating a technological administrative burden? #
  • http://bit.ly/1htCW #
  • Is there a market for an educational version of phpBB in the same way there was a market for an ed-version of WordPress? http://bit.ly/1htCW #
  • We don't use the touch screen of the MDG flip as much as we thought we would. Great for digital ink, but it's faster for us to type. #
  • Sometimes Rogers Mobile Internet Stick drops the signal and crashes. I wonder if the new version of the Rocket Stick is any better. #
  • Audacity in the classroom: students worked on their assignments at home but it turns out the school version is older and incompatible. Pity. #
  • What tools do you use for online student collaboration (i.e. Literature circles): Google Docs, Wikis, Blogs, phpbb, Moodle, other? #
  • I'm always amazed at how google can find everything when I search in google docs and gmail. Why can't I get Google desktop to work so well? #
  • Wow. $50 in adsense revenue this month. We're starting to make more and more. #
  • Heard that Scholastic isn't in the classroom in Quebec because of anti-marketing towards students laws. What does that say about Ontario? #
  • Federal Trade Commission (http://bit.ly/2icDq) regulates blogger affiliate marketing: http://bit.ly/3AUQl5 #
  • Experimenting with Google Wave: http://wave.google.com #
