Lois Smethurst, an educator from Australia, wrote the story below . See 2 video clips & a little blurb about the “Kids Teaching Kids/Mathtrain” presentation I did at the NECC Conference in Washington, DC.
I was invited to present in the TechSmith booth. It was an amazing experience. Yeah, I know. I spoke way too fast. But hey, I was excited!

What is a URL? (The iPhone/iPod Version)
I composed the music from putting together numerous generic loops in Garageband.
I need to take a survey soon and find which file type is preferred by you. Here is one specifically for the iPhone and iPod. Let me know if this version is better, or not necessary since the other mp4 files can easily be converted in iTunes. Thanks. Source: Lemay, Laura (1998).
