MECA Augment your student’s reality: Implementing augmented reality into your curriculum

Thanks for attending the session! I hope you found it enjoyable and informative. Augmented reality may change the way we deliver and consume information. I hope my examples were relevant, and I would love to know how you will use augmented reality in your classroom. Below you will find a link to the session's handout. You will also find links to some of my favorite augmented reality websites.

iPad 2 in Kindergarten Classrooms

I stumbled across a news story that discussed the implementation of iPad 2s in a Kindergarten classroom. A school system in Maine has decided to purchase iPad 2s for every Kindergartner. It's really no surprise that Maine, which is known famously for their 1-to-1 laptop program for their older students would be the first to experiment with a mass deployment of the iPad 2s in all of their Kindergarten classrooms.

iMovie Project

We have finally reached the point in the semester where we focus on creating an educational movie. The skills that we have been building will come together with this project. Your skills in iPhoto, GarageBand, and other programs can be used to make your movie. I have included several videos that will help you in your first movie-making endeavor. Remember to have fun! I can't wait to see your final products. Below you will find a link to a storyboard as well as a link to the iMovie page.
