// Hi Jeff, I am in Prof. Fraizer's technology III class and I am emailing to see if you know if I can save my blabberize pictures to my computer or email them to myself. The most I can figure out how to do is post them to a blog but when I copy the html code it does not work. I don't remember the name of the other grad student so I can't email him to ask. Thanks. //

// Hi student, Thinking about your question I will try to answer this two ways because I am not sure what you mean about save your blabberize pictures? 1. Prior to creating blabberize you should find the picture you want to use, save it to your documents or flash drive, and then import into blabberize. Once you have created blabberize profile the picture and recording will be saved on their website. 2. Now if you are talking about what to do with blabberize after you have completed it and are looking for a way to share your blabber with Prof. Frazier the easiest way is to create a wiki like Prof Frazier did in class. You then can embed your blabber into the space. // // I know this seems lengthy but it is not that hard. If this totally doesn't answer your question let me know. And if you want to embed into your blog, look for the widget button on your menu bar and follow a similar procedure. That will allow you to embed your blabber into your blog. I will be at the Mount on Monday presenting again so I would be happy to show you then if you still need help. Hope this helps!Jeff //
 * //You do this by creating a page within your wiki.//
 * //Then click "Edit This Page".//
 * // You will get a tool bar at the top. Click on the icon that looks like a TV, it will say "Embed Widget" when you scroll over top. //
 * // You will get a choice of widgets to embed, choose the "Video icon" //
 * // You will now get a choice of type of video, go to the bottom and select "Other" //
 * // Now you will need to open up your saved blabber. Click on the blabber and click where it says "Share it" //
 * // A box with HTML code will be there, highlight the entire code and copy it. //
 * // Now go back to your wiki and in the open box where you opened up the widgets paste the code in the box. //
 * //You can preview but make sure you save otherwise it will not embed in your wiki. Then you will see a gray box that says media. Save your wiki space and you will now be able to see the actual balbber on your page.//

// Thanks so much! I was able to upload to my wiki. //

1. Assist teachers as they apply current research on teaching and learning with technology when planning learning environments and experiences.
 * TF-II.B. Apply current research on teaching and learning with technology when planning learning environments and experiences. Candidates: **
 * //First Grade teachers at Waters Landing Elementary were trained on the use of Microsoft PhotoStory 3 as a way to extend their storytelling unit that focuses on creating a beginning, middle, and end to the story.//
 * //A set of tutorials were included for future reference as well as a sample lesson and rubric. The lesson was geared more for upper elementary but it gave the teachers an idea of how to integrate PhotoStory into their instruction.//

1. Assist teachers as they identify and locate technology resources and evaluate them for accuracy and suitability based on district and state standards. 2. Model technology integration using resources that reflect content standards.
 * TF-II.C. Identify and locate technology resources and evaluate them for accuracy and suitability. Candidates: **
 * //See TF I - Delicious Training - Delicious allows teachers to search and organize websites by subject matter. The popularity of the website is marked by the number of Delicious members who have bookmarked the site as well.//

1. Assist teachers as they identify and apply instructional design principles associated with the development of technology resources. > media type="custom" key="2363203" Reflection: After the Audacity training the students were asked by their professor to use one of the technologies demonstrated in a lesson in class. One of the students had a question on how to embed the Blabberize into a Wiki space. I used two different methods, a written version or text based, and a video tutorial. As technology facilitator you want to reach as many different learners as possible therefore the way you present your material needs to be varied. The Photo Story training was another hit with the first grade teachers at Waters Landing ES. They loved the idea of creating a video story. The teachers were working on their story telling unit focusing on beginning, middle, and end. A few of the teachers were concerned that their students were not computer savvy enough to use the program. I suggested a few different ideas; first, the teachers could pair students together with more tech savvy students. Second, I suggested creating one class story and breaking the students into three groups. One group would focus on the beginning, one group would work on the middle, and final group would work on the end. This would allow the teacher to handle more of the technical work as the students focus on the story. I told the teachers technology is used to support instruction not hinder it, so use the program in the best way that the students will benefit from it.
