<p>The holidays are coming, so after next week this series will take a small break and come back in the New Year! This time would be great for catching up on previous editions of this weekly series, <a href="http://teacherbootcamp.edublogs.org/category/what-did-they-tweet/">What Did They Tweet?</a> If you are viewing this from an RSS reader, you may want to check the <a href="http://teacherbootcamp.edublogs.org">homepage</a> to see the embedded videos and frames.</p>
<h3>21 Things that Became Obsolete This Decade</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/sammorra">@Sammorra</a> shared this incredible <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/21-things-that-became-obsolete-this-decade-2009-12#pdas-1">post about various technologies and services we rarely use</a>. What astonishes me is that many of these services and tools were quite popular. What do you think will be obsolete in 2020? Twitter? Facebook? Iphones?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="http://www.businessinsider.com/embed?id=4b1d61ac0000000000af41f6&amp;width=400&amp;height=430" width="400" height="430" border="0" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<h3>Christmas Web 2.0 Project Challenge</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/evab2001">@Evab2001</a> has created an <a href="http://christmaschallenge.wikispaces.com/Your+challenge">incredible wiki</a> that challenges students to use web 2.0 tools to explore several web 2.0 topics. Below is the Glogster of the challenge but please visit the <a href="http://christmaschallenge.wikispaces.com/Your+challenge">wiki </a>for more details on how to participate!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe src="http://edu.glogster.com/glog.php?glog_id=4144800&amp;scale=30" width="480" height="300" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" style="overflow: hidden;"></iframe></p>
<h3>Digital Dilemmas for Students</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/pmacoun">@Pmacoun</a> shared this interactive website, <a href="http://www.thatsnotcool.com/">That&#8217;s Not Cool</a>, that has students study where they draw their digital line. Students are presented various scenarios like the one below and their choice yields different outcomes. Click on any of the choices in <a href="http://www.youtube.com/thatsnotcool#p/u/24/Yo797fGG2go">the video</a> to see the outcome!</p>

<h3>Animation Storytelling Videos for Kids</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/uponschoolcloud">@Uponschoolcloud</a> shared their <a href="http://vimeo.com/channels/animationtellingstories#4433312">channel on Vimeo</a> which is full of kid friendly animated stories. I really loved this one below about the element Oxygen. This is a fun way for students to recall and understand how elements work together.

<h3>Technology Video Site Similar to TED</h3>
<p>Educators love TED talks and thanks to <a href="http://twitter.com/sabridv">@Sabridv</a>&#8216;s tweet we can enjoy another website, <a href="http://poptech.org/popcasts/abby_falik_global_service">PopTech</a>, with videos about various issues! Below is a short one I liked about turning students into global citizens.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="313" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><param name="flashvars" value="id=10815681&amp;vid=10815681&amp;autoPlay=0&amp;lang=en-us&amp;intl=us&amp;thumbUrl=&amp;embed=1" /><param name="src" value="http://d.yimg.com/static.video.yahoo.com/yep/YV_YEP.swf?ver=2.2.7.1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="313" src="http://d.yimg.com/static.video.yahoo.com/yep/YV_YEP.swf?ver=2.2.7.1" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="id=10815681&amp;vid=10815681&amp;autoPlay=0&amp;lang=en-us&amp;intl=us&amp;thumbUrl=&amp;embed=1" bgcolor="#000000"></embed></object></p>
<h3>Twitter and the Backchannel</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/vale24">@vale24</a> shared this article, <a href="http://chronicle.com/article/Conference-Humiliation-/49185/">Conference Humiliation: They&#8217;re Tweeting Behind Your Back</a>, which investigated the humiliation presenters faced when Tweckled, heckled by Twitterers. This article makes you think about the potential of Twitter as a backchannel in presentations. In many of the cases, the presenters suffered from technology malfunctions and suffered what the article terms a &#8220;virtual lynching.&#8221; What happened to netiquette and how far is too far?

<p>The countdown till Christmas is coming! Here are some gifts I found on Twitter. You can find more in this weekly series, <a href="http://teacherbootcamp.edublogs.org/category/what-did-they-tweet/">What Did They Tweet?</a></p>
<h3>Educators Learning to Change Video</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/ejulez">@Ejulez</a> shared <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tahTKdEUAPk">this video</a> tweeting, &#8220;We have to accept as educators that technology is not a choice.&#8221; I think the video really leaves room for discussion. The comments showed educators who were strongly against this video, but many other educators on Twitter believed in the message. What do you think?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tahTKdEUAPk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tahTKdEUAPk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<h3>Where Do I Start with Web 2.0?</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/techmunoz">@Techmunoz</a> has created an incredible <a href="http://www.ci.bryanisd.org/~kmunoz/Site/Teacher_Resources.html">website full of resources</a> for teachers new to  web 2.0 tools. On the website, I found this presentation which illustrates various easy web 2.0 tools to integrate in the classroom and how to use them.

<h3>Prezi: What is Social Gaming?</h3>

<h3>Student Views About Reading</h3>
<p>What do students think about the future of newspapers? In this <a href="http://inforgood.wordpress.com/2009/12/02/listening-to-kids-about-reading/">post</a>, the teacher, Ms. Stewart, shows a video interview of her students answering this question and others about reading.

<h3>Days With My Father</h3>

<h3>Kid&#8217;s Digital Stories</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/JohnMikulski">@JohnMikulski&#8217;s</a> students have created <a href="http://www.classroominthecloud.net/2009/11/student-examples-storybirdcom.html">beautiful digital stories using Storybird</a>. Storybird is one of my favorite applications that you can <a href="http://teacherbootcamp.edublogs.org/2009/09/13/cool-sites-913/">read about here</a>! John <a href="http://www.classroominthecloud.net/2009/11/using-storybirdcom-in-classroom.html">describes the project</a> which has students write a short story in which the protagonist discovers something he/she would have been better off not knowing. Please read the stories and <a href="http://www.classroominthecloud.net/2009/11/student-examples-storybirdcom.html">leave these students comments</a> on their stories. Below was one of many of my favorites!</p>

<h3>Using Scenarios in Your E-learning</h3>
<p>This brilliant Slideshare presentation provides a wonderful <a href="http://blog.cathy-moore.com/2009/11/why-you-want-to-use-scenarios-in-your-elearning/">reflection of how we design our instruction</a>. Although the focus is on e-learning, this really relates to the instructional design of all courses. Cathy Moore challenges us to reflect on our instructional methods to answer the question, &#8220;Are we teaching our students to solve problems?&#8221; This presentation was tweeted by <a href="http://twitter.com/ethankuniyoshi">@EthanKuniyoshi</a>.

If you are new to Second Life, please join the <a href="http://slifeslife.ning.com/">SLife is Life ning</a> where you will find educators like <a href="http://twitter.com/barbsaka">@barbsaka</a> and me willing to show you around.

<h3>Kids Videos to Help the Environment</h3>
<p>Getting children involved in solving world problems is always a fantastic idea! Therefore, I really enjoyed these infomercials by first graders who list ways to help the environment. I discovered these videos through <a href="http://twitter.com/stacybodin">Stacy Bodin</a>, a wonderful sharer of resources.  Below is one video, but I recommend you watch the rest of the videos by visiting <a href="http://www.twitvid.com/videos/grade1">@grade1&#8242;s website</a>.</p>

<p>In this brilliant post, <a href="http://twitter.com/terryfreedman">Terry Freedman</a>, delineates <a href="http://www.ictineducation.org/home-page/2009/11/12/10-ways-to-become-an-inspirational-teacher.html">10 ways to be inspirational</a>. These are what Terry suggests, please read his post for an explanation of each!</p>
<ol>
<li>Throw out the syllabus, at least one lesson a week</li>
<li>If throwing out the syllabus for a day is too risky, then throw it out for 10 minutes</li>
<li>Use the pupils</li>
<li>Use a photo</li>
<li>Turn the tables</li>
<li>Work with other teachers</li>
<li>Invest time in reading</li>
<li>Definitely visit other schools to see what they&#8217;re up to</li>
<li>Go to conferences</li>
<li>Join a club</li>
</ol>
<h3>Spoken Word Podcasts<a href="http://spokenword.org"><img class="alignleft" src="http://beta.thumbalizr.com/app/thumbs/?src=/thumbs/onl/source/24/246fd9f43dce69a6b52199c4d5fe24cf.png&amp;w=320&amp;q=0&amp;enc=" alt="" width="168" height="134" /></a></h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/GiseldaSantos">Giselda dos Santos</a><span> shared this link to <a href="http://www.spokenword.org/">Spoken Word podcasts</a>. I am a proponent of podcast resources for learning, because a majority of students have Ipods. This makes this technology very accessible to a majority of our learners. Moreover, there are several free podcast resources available for education. Spoken Word is one of these databases that has a variety of podcasts, vodcasts (videos), and slidecasts available on various topics. I urge you to explore this website!<br />

<h3>Video Games &amp; Learning</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/carldowse">Carl Dowse</a> tweeted this slide show presentation, <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/paulmaglione/video-games-the-learning-revolution-tesol-france">Video Games The Learning Revolution Tesol France</a>, by <a href="http://twitter.com/paulmaglione">Paul Maglione</a>. One of the reasons I enjoyed this tweet so much was because I wasn&#8217;t able to make the presentation. I think gaming is growing as an accepted tool for learning. I have read various stances on the issue and think debate is warranted on the topic. Do you believe video games are useful learning tools? Look at Paul&#8217;s slide show and see if you feel any differently!

<h3>Stephen Fry&#8217;s Take on Social Media</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/esolcourses">Sue <span>Lyon-Jones</span></a> tweeted this post on Stephen Fry&#8217;s take on social media. <span>Although Stephen Fry is an actor, I think he has a lot of insight on the new generation of students who will grow up with social media.

<h3>Videos to Bring Languages Alive</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/kenroyal">Ken Royal</a> runs <a href="http://www.educatorsroyaltreatment.com/2009/11/bringing-languages-alive-using-online-videos.html">an incredible website</a> which is updated daily with several interesting articles by various educators. In this piece, <a href="http://twitter.com/icpjones">Isabelle Jones</a>, shares advice on how to effectively use videos to motivate students to learn languages. Isabelle also lists many video search engines and video tools. Below is the video wall from one site mentioned, <a href="http://www.blinkx.com/">Blinkx</a>, which is a highly visual search engine that allows students to view what world events are taking place in real time.</p>

<h3>Skype an Author</h3>
<p><span><a href="http://twitter.com/bhsprincipal">Patrick Larkin</a> is one of the most progressive principals I have met on Twitter. One way to motivate students to read is by allowing them to interview and speak with their favorite authors. This activity is possible if you follow Patrick&#8217;s link with instructions and a database to help you </span><a href="http://skypeanauthor.wetpaint.com/">Skype an author</a> in the classroom. Below is a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI6jhq8kty0">video from the website</a> that shows you a class&#8217; interview with author, Mike Artell.

<h3>Online Safety Video for Students</h3>
<p>During our #edchat discussion about teaching students how to make a positive digital footprint, <a href="http://twitter.com/kylepace">Kyle Pace</a> shared this video. In the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOUu1fldBbI">video</a>, a girl <span>realizes that posting her picture on the Internet has consequences. This commercial could be used to spark a discussion with students on the implications of several online behaviors. This discussion should be a part of all schools!</span>

<h3>Technology VoiceThread for Schools</h3>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/monk51295">Monika Hardy</a> shared this valuable professional development tool for effective technology integration. This VoiceThread discusses how to effectively integrate various technologies into any school and covers Internet safety. Video, thought-provoking images, and more are included. This <a href="http://voicethread.com/share/705958/">Voicethread</a> would be great to share with parents, administrators, students, and teachers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img style="visibility: hidden; width: 0px; height: 0px;" src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.11NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyNTczMDYzNTkwNDcmcHQ9MTI1NzMwNjM2MjAwOSZwPTIwNjQyMSZkPWI3MDU5NTgmZz*yJm9mPTA=.gif" border="0" alt="" width="0" height="0" /><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="360" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="src" value="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=705958" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="360" src="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=705958" wmode="transparent"></embed></object></p>
<h3>Twitter Lists</h3>
<p><img class="alignleft" style="border: 1px solid black;" src="http://open.thumbshots.org/image.aspx?url=http://kalinago.blogspot.com/2009/10/why-twitter-lists-are-good-idea.html" border="1" alt="" width="120" height="90" />In this <a href="http://kalinago.blogspot.com/2009/10/why-twitter-lists-are-good-idea.html">brilliant post</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/kalinagoenglish">Karenne Sylvester</a> explains why Twitter&#8217;s new list feature is a great idea. Moreover, she offers fantastic advice on how to use Twitter lists!</p>
<p></p>
<h3>Controlling Environment vs. Behavior</h3>
<p><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" src="http://open.thumbshots.org/image.aspx?url=http://liveuncomfortably.com/controlling-environment-vs-behavior/" border="1" alt="" width="120" height="90" />With the various technology tools being developed at the speed of light, we should learn to relax and limit our time on the computer. Finding a balance is a goal I am still struggling with. For this reason, I really enjoyed this article, <a href="http://liveuncomfortably.com/controlling-environment-vs-behavior/">Controlling Environment versus Behavior</a>, tweeted by <a href="http://twitter.com/MyschaTheriault">Myscha Theriault</a>. The article provides practical tips, such as limiting the amount of distractions in your workspace to minimize your time on the computer.</p>
<h3>Google Wave Tutorials</h3>
<p><img class="alignleft" style="border: 1px solid black;" src="http://open.thumbshots.org/image.aspx?url=http://lifefeast.blogspot.com/2009/10/google-wave-tutorials.html" border="1" alt="" width="120" height="90" /><a href="http://twitter.com/anamariacult">Ana Maria Menezes</a> <span>s</span>hared a list of various <a href="http://lifefeast.blogspot.com/2009/10/google-wave-tutorials.html">Google Wave video tutorials</a> that she created. Google Wave is still relatively new and these tutorials provide an easy way to start navigating through it with topics, such as creating folders, saving a search, or sending an invite!</p>
<h3>Educational Resources Galore!</h3>
<p><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" src="http://open.thumbshots.org/image.aspx?url=http://cybraryman.com/index.html" border="1" alt="" width="120" height="90" />Often we search for a list of resources on any given topic to include in lessons or a presentation. Searching through the Internet takes too long, which is why I thoroughly enjoy <span><a href="http://twitter.com/cybraryman1">Jerry Blumengarten</a>&#8216;s website, <a href="http://cybraryman.com/index.html">Cybraryman&#8217;s Educational Websites</a>. Jerry, the Cybraryman, provides various links to numerous resources in nearly every subject area. He updates his resources often to keep up with the latest educational topics including Google Wave. The website is really easy to navigate and has sections for parent, educators, and students!</span>

<h3>Cool Claymation Tips</h3>
<p>The educator in me loves student projects, which is why this is my favorite tweet of a claymation video by four students. The music is amazing, the story plot resembles Romeo and Juliet, and the creativity is off the charts. How could this tweet get any better? <a href="http://twitter.com/marynabadenhors">Maryna Badenhorst</a>&#8216;s tweet also provides a <a href="http://marynabadenhorst.globalteacher.org.au/videos/video-creation/claymationstop-motion/">link to a list of claymation resources</a> and tips to get your students started in creating their own claymation videos! I really enjoyed browsing through the rest of the website which offers very cool educational technology tips! I am sure this will become a favorite part of my daily read!</p>

<h3>Good Tech/ Bad Tech Debate</h3>
<p>In this brilliant post, <a href="http://twitter.com/cheimi10">Jamie Keddie</a> explores the parallels in describing the relationship between technology and the classroom. He uses the medical field as an example and illustrates with images how two pediatricians use technology to save lives in Sierra Leone. Read this <a href="http://www.jamiekeddie.com/593">thought-provoking post</a>!</p>
<h3>Hip-hop and Shakespeare</h3>
<p>I attend several webinars and in nearly every one of them run into my webinar buddy, <a href="http://twitter.com/mbteach">Mary Beth Hertz</a>. During one of the webinars I sought some advice in teaching English language learners Shakespeare. Mary Beth later tweeted me a link to this amazing article about  the rapper, <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2009/apr/15/shakespeare-hip-hip-rap">Akala, hosting workshops for teenagers that relate Shakespeare to hip-hop</a>. These types of projects are incredible for closing the achievement gap. Watch the inspirational video below about the project.

<h3>Students Making an Impact</h3>
<p>In my last post, I shared my desire to raise students who are passionate about making a difference. This video shared by <a href="http://twitter.com/808lika">Lika</a>, who often tweets about activism, shows a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQmz6Rbpnu0">powerful speech given by a teenager</a> to the UN. The girl does not paint a pretty picture, but reveals her frustration at the continual destruction of the environment by adults. Share this video with your students and witness their reactions. I believe students will be inspired by the video.</p>

<h3>Wiki Projects You Should Support</h3>
<p>Inspire students to improve their writing and reflect upon it by leaving a comment on one of the several projects listed in the <a href="http://comments4kids.wikispaces.com/">Comments4Kids wiki</a>. This wiki was created by <a href="http://twitter.com/wmchamberlain">WMChamberlain</a>. If you have a student project you would like people to leave comments on, then you can add your project to the wiki!</p>
<p>Have a presentation you are proud of and want to share it with your <a href="http://teacherbootcamp.edublogs.org/2009/10/08/what-my-pln-means-to-me/">PLN</a>? Add your presentation under the several categories listed in <a href="http://twitter.com/bethstill">Beth Still</a>&#8216;s <a href="http://presoshare.pbworks.com/">presentation wiki</a> page. You are welcome to use any of the presentations on the wiki. This project has several presentation formats and would be great to share with students examples before they begin their own projects or to share with other teachers during a training session.</p>
<h3>20 Ways to Use Comics in the Classroom</h3>
<p><span><a href="http://twitter.com/TNschatz">TNschatz</a> shared t</span>his slideshare presentation, which demonstrates 20 wonderful ways to use comics for student learning. Comics are great to use in the classroom, because they are visual, fun, and accessible to English Language Learners! The presentation also includes various links to free comic creators.

However, this time <a href="http://twitter.com/MatthiasHeil">Matthias Heil</a> came to the rescue by sharing a link to <a href="http://tweetdeck.com">TweetDeck&#8217;s version 0.31&#8242;s</a> new follower feature.

<h3>The Fun Theory</h3>
<p>Can we change students&#8217; behaviors by making learning fun? <a href="http://twitter.com/edwebb">Ed Webb</a> shared this video and started a great discussion on his website about <a href="http://edwebb.amplify.com/2009/10/10/the-pedagogy-of-fun/">the pedagogy of fun</a>. I would like to continue the discussion here, because I do think that the educational system is programmed to make learning tedious. Exploration, discovery, problem-solving, and collaboration should be fun, but often this part of learning is lacking in curricula. I believe it is the best part of learning, which is why I hope this video inspires you and maybe your staff! This tweet was recommended by <span><a href="http://twitter.com/vale24">Valentina Dodge</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/kalinagoenglish">Karenne Sylvester</a>, and <a href="http://twitter.com/larryferlazzo">Larry Ferlazzo</a>.<br />

<h3>Preaching to the Choir?</h3>
<p>Often I hear we are preaching to the choir on Twitter, but I think people forget that the conversations we have on Twitter are extended to our schools. <a href="http://twitter.com/bmontana">Bill Montana</a> demonstrates how he enlightens other educators at his school in his post, <a href="http://collablearning.org/wordpress/2009/10/starting-conversation/">Starting Conversation</a>. He shares several resources, which any educator could use with their PLN to begin a conversation, therefore, challenging educators to reflect upon their teaching methodologies. Included in this post is this inspirational video by Alan November.
