Jennifer Dorman commented on Creative Commons: What every Educator needs to know Terrific presentation! Thanks for sharing! 9 months ago
Jennifer Dorman commented on Power Up Your Professional Learning Network Thanks for the feedback. I’ve tried to correct this issue, but subsequent uploads don’t seem to be working either. You’ll notice some bizarre black boxes on several of the slide - they’re not like that in the original. I’ll tried to correct it. 11 months ago

Jennifer Dorman commented on Digital Storytelling with Movie Maker I agree that the slide show is pretty long, but to hit on all the features it really needs to be comprehensive. This is meant to be a teach-yourself style tool. 2 years ago

Jennifer Dorman commented on Online Tools to Engage Students Obviously, overuse of any instructional tactic should be avoided. Teachers should consistently vary their instructional strategies to engage their students’ based in interest, readiness, and learning profile. What about the situation when all teachers are assigning paper and pencil written homework . . . are we overloading them with paper? Blogs are just one of myriad 21st century technologies that have proven to be engaging, relevant, and worthwhile. I would play devil’s advocate and say that students are not necessarily spending "too much time online already" - rather, they are not spending enough quality time learning online. Would you say that a student who is a prolific reader is spending "too much time with books and not enough time interacting with others"? Blogs are a great way to model appropriate online behavior and empower students to access the Internet to learn instead of simply to socialize. Regardless of how we feel about technology absolutely no one can deny that it is impacting the way our student learn, express themselves, and interact with others. From whom are students learning how to behave appropriately online or how to use online resources to learn? I can tell you from experience that it is not from their parents. And if they are not learning it in school either that leaves their peers . . . scary thought. 3 years ago

Jennifer Dorman commented on Digital Storytelling I understand your point if this were to have been disseminated online only. It was used, however, as the focal point for a full-day workshop in which both the pedagogy and the practical applications were addressed. Please feel free to e-mail me the slides you most like and I’ll send them to you for your personal use. 3 years ago
Jennifer Dorman commented on Digital Storytelling This PowerPoint was created to accompany a 6-hour workshop that investigated the educational applications of digital storytelling and also had a lab session during which teachers learned how to use Windows Movie Maker. 3 years ago
