nanoogo, para incentivar la vena creativa de nuestros hijos En nanoogo.com tenemos un original y atractivo proyecto que pueden usar los educadores (tanto profesores como padres) para incentivar a que los niños escriban y cuenten historias. Cuando creamos una cuenta como escuela, por ejemplo, podemos crear proyectos nuevos y cuentas de alumnos que podrán participar en los mismos. Cada proyecto puede estar relacionado con actividades de todo tipo, desde resúmenes de libros a cuentos inventados por los niños, el caso es escribir. nanoogo ofrece un editor online bastante diferente a todo lo que hemos visto, con imágenes y componentes que hacen más divertida la tarea de elaboración de texto. Podemos incluir figuras, pegatinas y bloques de texto como si de un montaje de fotos se tratara, siempre asociando cada trabajo a las categorías que el educador definió inicialmente. En el vídeo que veis abajo tenemos una demostración de cómo se usa. Por desgracia solo está en inglés, aunque eso no impide que los textos publicados estén en español.
