The path outside the fort, leading up to the three ships in Jamestown is lined with glogs. There are two glogs in the pavilion with a media player ready to show two videos that have been converted from You Tube to movs on my school website. Whew!
I have a potential guest speaker that I really hope will come. It's because he may come that this simple idea got so big! Jim Dachos, Education Manager at Glogster EDU said he'd like to come into Second Life to share in my Glogster meeting and I'm advertising that he'll be there.
The idea is to talk about this Web 2.0 tool, a favorite of many because it is so motivational and easy to use, and share ideas. I'm planning to start with what it is, then talk about how to, share some pratical advice and a cool story about GlogsterEDUman responding to a parent question very quickly via Twitter, and finish with examples from third graders through adults.
Hopefully there will also be sharing from the attendees.
I'm very excited about this meeting. If it goes well we wil try more like it. I have always loved the SL "edutech" meetings most that lead directly to something I could do with kids in the classroom. This is one of those meetings.

I learned media on a prim for this meeting. This is from a viewer that doesn't see that. |
Media on this puppy was a pain. It took me a while to find the right combination of groups and tools to get it to go from slides to video, but I have it now! |
