web 2.0 and Facebook

I think that some cool 2.0 web tools that could definitely help to further education are google docs, this site is very helpful in getting together with classmates and working on assignments. It could also be used as a teacher in working on things outside of the classroom setting. Another website is PE central which is a very good tool for teachers in the physical education setting. It gives great ideas for different situations and allows you to share ideas on the website as well. Students would be able to go to this site to look at things that would seem interesting to them and let their teacher know.
I had a friend a couple years ago who had a class where they were required to use facebook in their assignments. They were put into groups and each group created a person that was relative to the topic they were discussing, I believe it was a religion class (so each group chose a person from the scriptures and made a facebook page with their name and information and all that type of stuff correlating) then the groups were required to write to each other, making sure to keep with the scenario. I think this sounds like a good way to use facebook in order for kids to learn new information about someone and share it with others. 

Okay so apparently it didn't post, since the video is not working. So I looked at youtube and I guess it is still processing it even though it's uploaded. Hopefully it will finish soon because the lab is closing.

Yay! it worked! So this movie wasn't all that bad making, it was more of the uploading that I had mass frustrations with.

The link to look at Krissy's video is krissyple.blogspot.com

I really enjoy both of our movies and hope you do too!

THE MOVIE!

okay so after 5 times of trying to upload this video to youtube I finally did it. So here it is, hope you enjoy. 

Movie movie movie

Because I was having so much trouble finding children to use for my movie I decided to change my approach. My theme is fit for life so I am showing people who are being active in different activities. I can't get my video to upload onto youtube, it's taking forever!

PSA

I am having trouble finding a child for my video, I need a boy around age 10. Also I'm not sure how to do the split screen, I may have to just do one section and then the other.I think I may end up changing my video storyboard. Also how do you do the credits?
