= Jenifer Smith = = Erin Diaz = = = = New plan......waht if we use the nota (Like we said we were going to use the wiki) becuse we can create links to animoto, glogster go animate and wikis......so my thought is...use the nota as a presenting tool for all these diffeent 2.0 tools. The reason i think the nota over the wiki is becuse you can do slides and create intresting pages on the wiki you can not. = = 1. do the Intro on the nota and link to go animate video = = 2. what is inquiry and reserch on the nota screen and use an animota video to show pictures and teachers holding up the signs = = 3. TEKS on the Nota = = 4. Introduce the stripling model if inquiry (gloster ...Maybe) or something else = = 5. hand out information (chart) on a glogster or PDF linked to the nota = = 6. put the lesson plans on a wiki....this will also show how teacherllibrains can collaborate on lesson plans using a wiki...which means thy are not alwys having to meet which can possibly save teachers time. = = = = look at the nota we made and see were i added your portrait animoto and my glogster and go animate. this way we have incorported several diffrent web 2.0 tools through out the presentation to show teachers how they can be used. = = if you make the animoto video and finish up the lesson plans i will pu the rest of the information togather. = = I hope this makes since....text or call me tomorrow. =

Ok, I have been working on the Nota and a new one (an Empressr) all day on and off. I just can't seem to get this to work. I am going to call you in a little while, but I was thinking we may need to go with another Web 2.0 tool. I know that we have already used Animotos in this class, but I just think it may be the most interesting way to present this information. What do you think???? I am ready to scream with these presentation tools not working!!! Here's the new one I have been working on...

@http://notaland.com/jenismith/86034 I just added you to the public nota. I hope the link works! I didn't get through all of the slides - I need to get on tomorrow and see about the pop-up stuff we were talking about earlier and all of that. I may just have to make a few Photo Stories or PowerPoints and convert them so we can add them. I will let you know about that. Hopefully it will be a painless project! Anyway, you can text me tomorrow if you need to. I leave my phone in my office when I have a class, but I can usually reply fairly quickly during the day. I'm going to try to work on this tomorrow morning since I don't have class right away. We got through a whole day of no stomach issues for anyone! This coming week may actually be normal! ~Jeni Slide 1 - title slide Slide 2 - What is research? - Videos Slide 3 - What is inquiry? - A couple quotes about inquiry (teachers - CV, Jay, teachers) Slide 4 - Put them together - INQUIRY + RESEARCH= Deeper understanding - Stripling quote Slide 5 - OVERWHELMED YET? how am I going to fit this in to what I already have to do? Im not sure how to go about the process? How am I going to get my kids to engage? Or learn not to plagiarize? (use video of teachers holding up signs asking questions) Slide 6 - Don't worry, we have the answer “**Research shows that today’s digital students learn more when engaged in meaningful relevant and intellectually stimulating school work and that the use of technology can increase the frequency for this type of learning (NCREL and the Metiri group 2003)** - motivational factors of research for teachers/ school (include standardized testing info, TEKS, )- LINK- "click here for research TEKS"
 * STOP**…… the first step is being aware and wanting change…… Then BABY STEPS…… this is a gradual process for you as and individual teacher, your team and the school and together we(the librarians ) will guide you along the way. **Students**…..they do not want to engage with the material, plagiarize, cut and paste facts, boring, not learning, students get overwhelmed with the information, do not know how to planGradual process…. little steps. Students need motivation, using web 2.0 tools.

Slide 7 - Introduce Stripling Model (little bit of background) Slide 8 - Show Stripling phases Slide 9 - how it differes from traditional research? - chart Slide 10 - HOW CAN ALL OF THIS BE ACCOMPLISHED IN OUR CLASSROOMS?, Using this model.... lesson plan Slide 11 - Summary

Ok, I just created a new page bc it was doing the same thing to me. I googled it, but the only thing I really "learned" was to type in the URL instead of clicking the links, but that didn't work either. Anyway, hopefully this new page will allow us to work. I realize that the text is all smushed together, but I think we can manage our way through it. I just texted you, so call me whenever you can and we can work on the presentation. The Wordle has to be saved as a jpeg and then imported into our presentation (that's how I have to use them in Animotos, anyway). Starting tomorrow I will get some interview videos and have some students work through some inquiry research (I can bring them in at lunch or before/after school to get some video). I also created a Nota account (I will use it for other stuff too) and started a presentation for this. I am really just playing around with it to see what it will do, so if you have already started one, we can use yours. There isn't much on mine right now, just a few slides (no video or anything). Can we use audio from other presentations if we cite them?

Hey Jenifer....I dont know waht happened ....i went in to chamge the color of my font and the screen just went blank and i lost all information. I put most of everything back in from my word document except our conversations we were having about waht we were going to do. I left you a crazy message becuse i was freaking out...sorry...look over and check if i missed anything and i will try to locate it.

It is recursive meaning students can revisit particular stages as the need arises. During each phases the learner constructs new knowledge through different thought processes. It encourages active participation, the use of technology, reflection and deep understanding. it can be used from Kindergarten through 12th grade <span style="color: teal; font-family: 'arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">-Highlights <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">Lesson Plans <span style="color: teal; font-family: 'arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">.5.

Express: apply understandings to a new context, share learning with others <span style="color: purple; font-family: 'arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 13px;">6.
