There are many sessions devoted to technology applications. Two that I attended on Friday afternoon were presented by dynamic teachers from New Jersey and Texas.
In “Lights! Action! Science!” Barbara DeSantis showed examples of her students’ work using applications such as Voicethread, Animoto, and xtranormal (no, I hadn’t heard of these, either). She shared her website with links to these resources.
Anyone who doubts the value of podcasts in science should talk to Stef Paramoure! in her high-energy presentation “The ABCs of Podcasting” she shared some of her favorite podcasts and how she uses them in her classes. Check out her website, too.
