We're planning to offer such a class next year to our 7th-8th graders and are looking into VE software alternatives. We are PC based.
Does anyone have user based comments on Pinnacle Studio, Sony Vegas, or Adobe Elements? Or any other software yo...
Whether you are a principal or the tech director, you have ideas! Let's share them here.
Frank, I purchases three HP minis for my own class (since we don't have enough computers for middle school). The students love them for blogging or researching, but they don't like editing their papers on them. I use MS Word commenting and track c...
We use Dell Mini 10 v laptops with our 5th graders. We use Ubuntu Linux as the operating system. The focus in 5th grade is writing a research. So far the students love working with their netbooks. The track pad issues are highly complex and so we'...

This is interesting as well
Hi Susan ~ I Twitter and I love my PLN on Twitter! I get teaching ideas daily, and I feel like I miss out on great discussion if I am away from Twitter for more than a few days. My Twitter name is BJacketsfan.
For all teachers of 2nd grade.
Thanks Sarah,
I agree with you - what I really want to say is that the 1-1 will enhance and improve our already high quality teaching and that it is part of the "life long learner" that is in our mission statement.
