The document summarizes presentations from the Winter 2011 Technology Serving Learning Institute. It describes various educational technologies that were demonstrated, including Adobe Connect for web conferencing, Camtasia for screen recording, Google Docs and FastFlip for document creation and sharing, Flickr and Poll Everywhere for sharing photos and polling, and Dyknow, Raptivity, and Photo Story for interactive lessons. It also lists emerging technologies like 3D autopsy tables, modular computers, and gesture-controlled interfaces. The goal of the institute was to showcase technologies that can enhance teaching and learning.
The document summarizes how classrooms are changing to accommodate new learning styles and technologies. Traditional classrooms are being replaced with collaborative centers that allow for tiered and individualized instruction. Technologies like screensharing, wiki pages, avatars, and websites like Weebly provide new ways for students to access information and learn at their own pace. The integration of new structures and technologies in the classroom creates a more engaging environment tailored for today's students.
There are two types of interactive whiteboards: virtual and physical display panels. They are used in classrooms and lecture halls to allow instructors to write or draw and save images to share with students. Interactive whiteboards can enhance presentations, create customized learning materials, and help students absorb information easily. However, they are expensive and the surfaces can become damaged over time. Interactive whiteboards have four main components: a computer, projector, display panel, and appropriate software. The three main types of display panels are resistive membrane, electro-magnetic, and laser scanners.
The document discusses game-based e-learning and summarizes several key points. It explores how games can impart critical thinking and teamwork skills through stealth or unconscious learning. It provides examples of how the communication tool Skype has been used for distance learning and virtual classrooms. It also profiles e-learning expert Stephen Downes and analyzes the game Portal as an example of a game that teaches problem-solving through interactive puzzles.
This document summarizes Web 2.0 tools and how they can be used in education. It describes various tools for presentations, digital storytelling, social media, writing/blogging, collaboration, file sharing, bookmarking, programming, web design, YouTube, polling, and assessment. Examples include 際際滷share, Storybird, Facebook, WordPress, Evernote, Google Docs, Scratch, Weebly, SurveyMonkey, and Infuse Learning. The document concludes with asking participants to do a quick poll to assess their technology comfort level.
