Two-Tech Tip Tuesday
A Few More Tips You Might Like...
Time for Timers!!!!
The link is here: http://www.online-stopwatch.com
It has countdown timers, egg timers. stopwatch timers, and even chess timers (for both players!). My favorite is the Custom Countdown where you select your Countdown (I picked Swimming Timer); then sound at the end (I picked Applause); how long the countdown, and where to start the count. It then generates a URL, and here is mine.
There are a few ads on top, but you can make the timer full screen for your particular activity. It is free and easy.
BUNCEE
Want to try a new site for creating interactive presentations?
Buncee is a innovative new (beta) site for creating interactive presentations/lessons. This is a fantastically simple site to use to create not only beatiful looking slideshows but e-cards, posters, and more.
It is like a combination of Glogster, Smore, and Biteslide.
Best of all a user can embed a Buncee (presentation) into their site/blog.
Finally, there are a ton of educational resources to browse through such as: lessons, projects, flyers, etc.
Here are some ways Buncee can be used in the classroom (from their site)...
- A great learning tool for Blended or Project Based Learning, as well as Flipping a Classroom.
- Create interactive lessons or projects that flip your classroom in a fun and easy way
- Introduce technology w/ Buncee projects and assignments that spark creativity and help support common core standards
- Have students of any age easily create multimedia projects
- Share engaging school event invites, or class news w/ students, parents, and the community.
