Ushahidi Animation Software Reviews, Best Stop Motion Animation Software I came across this interesting interview with Justin Segal on youtube. I like the snippets of animation I have seen of his so I have transcribed what he had to say here for your interest. You should check out AnimationMentor online also by the way. My name is Justin Segal and I am an animator. As it turned out, it was a longer journey than I thought. The process of creating a character is a really fun one and an interesting one – it’s different every time. So, you want to do that and usually that triggers quite a few things. Animation Mentor is awesome in that it’s real world. I think the way that the school is set up is perfect in terms of real world. Animation Mentor has changed me in ways I can’t even begin to predict yet.

There are many websites that do a tremendous job of exploring different tools that teachers can access like TeachThought, freetech4teachers , edutopia, edudemics and many more. There are also many educators that have great resources for specific apps/tools like Evernote and EduClipper where you can get great information about how to use these tools in the classroom. With that being the case, I don’t usually write about tools too much. However, I have been using a specific tool for curating items from the web for a number of years now and thought it would be worth sharing. Pearltrees Pearltrees is a great tool for curating items, sorting them and sharing them with others. This screen shot shows some of the different categories that I have created. First, I can send them a link to the url for the pearl Pearling is easy

What is Web 2.0? Ideas, technologies and implications for education (TechWatch report) Within 15 years the Web has grown from a group work tool for scientists at CERN into a global information space with more than a billion users. Currently, it is both returning to its roots as a read/write tool and also entering a new, more social and participatory phase. These trends have led to a feeling that the Web is entering a ‘second phase’—a new, ‘improved’ Web version 2.0. Executive summary This TechWatch report was commissioned to investigate the substance behind the hyperbole surrounding ‘Web 2.0’ and to report on the implications this may have for the UK Higher and Further Education sector, with a special focus on collection and preservation activities within libraries. The report establishes that Web 2.0 is more than a set of ‘cool’ and new technologies and services, important though some of these are.

Testing Stop Motion Software for PCs | GeekDad If you’ve got a Mac, making stop motion movies with your kids is a no-brainer: iStopMotion is great. But if you’ve got a PC, the choice is harder. There are lots of programs available, but each has drawbacks, and getting cameras to work properly is a huge headache. I tested two programs: The PC leader, StopMotionPro ($70 for Junior version), and a simpler program called StopMotionMaker ($58). StopMotionPro is by far the more polished software and looks quite easy to use. We tested it on both Vista and XP, and updated all the drivers for each camera we tried. StopMotionMaker is just the opposite. StopMotionMaker has most of the essentials, such as "onionskinning" (you can see a ghost of the preview frame so you know how much to move your models), various frame-per-second recording speeds and AVI output. In the end, we were surprised by how poor the state of stop motion software on the PC is.

Teach Systems Thinking Hide Caption Researchers from NASA Goddard’s Global Modeling and Assimilation Office ran a simulation of the atmosphere that captured how winds whip aerosols around the world. Such simulations allow scientists to better understand how these tiny particulates travel in the atmosphere and influence weather and climate.

Effective Strategies for Teaching Systems Thinking Several effective strategies for teaching systems thinking have been identified by Cutting Edge and InTeGrate workshop participants, including using computer modeling, an inquiry-based approach, and role-playing. Concept maps are a helpful way of seeing components of a system and information flows among components.
