I found two tech tools that I am really familiar with, which are PBS and Scratch. I found PBS to be educated sometime for kids and even adult. Same for Scratch, it kind of like a communication tool at the same time you can play game and learn from game that was created by others. I found PBS to be similar with starfall because kids can play learning game and have fun learning math, reading, and writing.
One other tech tool that I think is really interesting is second life. You can created your own world and move your avatar anywhere to others place and experience others ideas or even take class or build your own dream house.
All three of your tech tools sound great. I plan to look into seond life. I'm not sure if it is something I will like, but my daughter would love it. I had used the PBS site before, but I have never heard of scratch. Is it hard to use? I think I'll look into that one too. My list of websites to visit is growing Fast, teresa
ReplyDeleteI've heard of second life before and it sounds really interesting. I had a meeting with Hilary when she was exploring it and she gave me a mini tour of it. It was super cool. I think it would be really fun to use it in our online classes.
ReplyDeleteSecond life sounds really interesting, thanks for sharing it with us! I'm definitely going to have to check it out for myself. Is it kind of like the Sims? Sarah brought up a good point, I'm curious about how it would work out in our online classes. :D
