Knowledge, Learning, Community
Wesley Fryer has summarized quite well a number of the talks from the Google Geo-Teacher Institute in Lewiston, Maine (just a few hours down the road from me!). "125 million education users now for Google Apps for education," he notes. It's hard to overstate the impact Google has had in this space. I use it every day - for calendaring, to keep track of MOOC statistics, to author documents and sites, to read my RSS feeds, and (once in a while) to search. Here are Fryer's summaries:
- A Real Tipping Point? Vision for Individualized Learning in Maine
- This is a big map! (Giant Traveling Maps from National Geographic)
- The Fourth Part of the World by Toby Lester
- Giant Traveling Maps project from National Geographic
- Digitizing Student Portfolios with an iPod Touch [video]
