Thanks to students “Bob”, “Billy Billy”, “Jerry” and “Paul”! And thanks to Brian Mull, of November Learning. We are so excited about this!
I’m in Boston for this year’s BLC 10, which is Alan November’s Building Learning Communities conference.
This is always the greatest conference. This year, I am co-presenting with one of my former students “Jerry”. We will be discussing and demonstrating our “Kids Teaching Kids” classroom model and student screencasting.
Just a few days away from the ISTE 2010 Conference in Denver, CO. Come see student “Bob” and me present in the TechSmith booth as well as a formal session on Wednesday!
Please come visit us in the TechSmith booth! We don’t work for TechSmith, but they were once again so kind in sponsoring our trip and presentation. Sadly, our school district and school has never assisted us when we go present our student work. But thankfully, TechSmith understands. They paid for us to fly out and stay in Denver to participate in the conference.
This session focuses on the positive effects of adopting a collaborative “kids teaching kids” model via student-created screencasts. This collaborative model helped spark student interest and enthusiasm inside and outside of the classroom. Our student-created screencast lessons (also known as mathcasts) have reached a global audience thanks to Alan November, our free Mathtrain.TV web site and our iTunes Podcast.
Actual student-created screencasts will be shown. Attendees will also learn how to create their own screencasts and watch a live student demonstration of the process. Student, “Bob”, will be co-presenting.
