Classroom ideas : Clever video parodies, great for history. Useful as introductions to units. Students could also create their own.
Reflections on being an Echo Chamber:
I discovered this tool came from Joyce Valenza 's NeverEndingSearch http://blog.schoollibraryjournal.com/neverendingsearch . I get many great ideas from her and other tech and ed blog writers. In fact that is where I get all my tools. It has surprised me how creative I feel in using and presenting to others these tools when I know I did not make or discover them. At best I am a fourth or fifth level echo-er. But I take heart in my echoes, because I hope they aid the teachers and students I work with every day, And my small echoing transforms these tools into new uses. Maybe this is how being a grandparent feels :)
