Flocabulary is a fun Web 2.0 site for education from Kapulers priceless blog. This is a great site for introducing or reviewing a subject/concept. The way this works is through innovative animated videos (or as Flocabulary puts it "Educational Hip-Hop"), that helps students learn through visual and auditory means. Also, there are some great features that make Flocabulary perfect for the classroom. For example, the lyrics of each song are displayed below the video and are interactive filled w/ words that are hot-linked to explore in more detail. The lyrics can also be downloaded or printed out.

All you have to do is click "ADD TO LIST."

Ferlazzo has many free resources, including excerpts and student hand-outs, available from all his books. Clicking on the covers will lead you to them! Flipped Classroom TOOLS and Resources Making the transition to a flipped classroom can be quite a trial. Not only are you changing your daily routine and lessons, but also the software and hardware you use. If you need a hand (and who doesn't?), here are some tools to help you flip your classroom. EDpuzzle is becoming one of the premiere web/iOS tools around for learning in the classroom. This is a fantastic free tool for editing a video, cropping, adding quizzes/polls, narration, etc. then embedding into site/blog. It is being used to flip a classroom or lesson, Project Based Learning, grading/assessing, and even for differentiating instruction. The educational portal allows students to sign-up w/out needing an email account and lets educators track student progress in real-time.
A "Flipped Classroom" is a classroom that uses class time to do activities/lessons (guided by the teacher) and "homework" time (at home) for guided instruction (usually through video). Basically, it turns a classroom upside down (or on its head) where the learning of a topic is done at home and then that applied practice or "work" is done at school. With Mobile Learning and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) becoming more mainstream, "Flipped Classroom" models are happening more and more, leading me to create my list of favorite tools for "flipping a classroom". [Written by dkapuler on Jul 23, 2013].
GoNoodle is a fantastic App to be used on a whiteboard/projector to give students "brain" breaks throughout the school day. This is done by interacting w/ three different videos/activities: Airtime, Run w/ Us, and Maximo. Integrating GoNoodle into the classroom has a positive effect on students and helps reenergize them to maximize their potential throughout the day. A wonderful way for teachers to create an interactive/guided presentation for their students "flipped learning". The ultimate assessment tool for teachers to use w/ their mobile devices or browser to gauge student's learning. A fantastic iPad app for turning your iPad into a recordable whiteboard. This allows for a teacher to create guided lessons (by adding text/drawing/narration) that students can view at home. Students can then use the app in class to answer each other questions before asking the teacher, while teachers can use it to assess student's learning. A excellent innovative site that allows students engage their creativity by completing chapters of a book/story and then having other students vote on which one should be included in the finished product. Once a book/story is completed a trade paperback copy can be ordered turning students into published writers. A terrific iPad app that is very similar to Ask3 as it turns the iPad into a recordable whiteboard. However, a teacher can not only create a bunch of guided lessons, they can also post them on the web for their students to view at home for "flipped learning". A wonderful iPad/web tool that allows educators to create lessons and then assess students learning in real-time. Also, students can view the lessons at home on their mobile devices and learn at their own pace. Is one of the most popular sites/apps for creating and searching for video lessons for students. Simply put, Knowmia is one of the best and easiest ways to "flip a classroom". A great site/company for educational iOS Math games that can be used to create 21st Century "Math Centers". This is a great way to use educational apps to reinforce "flipped learning". A fantastic site for educators to create guided learning playlists that students can use at home for self learning. One of the best sites around for creating a "Flipped Classroom". A terrific all-in-one solution for mobile devices in education. Teachers can use it to create engaging lessons that students can do from home.

Best of all students are created on their mobile device and all student and data tracking is done automatically which then generates reports. FF just added 18 new reading passages for grades 6 - 8!!!

Flip Snack is a new (beta) site that reminds me a lot of Bookrix or Mixbook. All a user has to do is upload a PDF and then choose options on how they want their flipbook created. Once the book is created it can then be shared on your favorite social network or embedded into a site. The book can also be downloaded. The only other feature I'd to see is the ability to order a hard copy of your book like you can do on Mixbook. Click here to see my top 10 list on creating digital books. (Written by dkapuler) FILE-SHARING PROGRAMS TOP 10 SITES FOR FILE SHARING Written by dkapuler on Jul 12, 2011 10:18 pm "File sharing is the practice of distributing or providing access to digitally stored information, such as computer programs, multimedia (audio, images, and video), documents, or electronic books (wikipedia)." As w/ any business or educational institution integrated w/ technology, it's important to have a solid grasp on file sharing and be fluent in the use of file sharing technologies. Top 10 Sites for File Sharing A unique site that allows a user to create a dropbox that allows others to access via a request and then download. Probably the most popular of the web based file sharing sites that integrates w/ Google Apps. Also, has the ability to share/store files in a folder which is ideal for embedding into a site. A simple file sharing site that allows users to embed their file into a blog/site or share w/ a unique URL. A free easy to use site that allows users to upload up to 5 Gig of data. An ideal way to share files in a private setting either as an URL or embed code. A great site for file sharing which allows for password protection and the ability to choose what format you want to download the file in. An excellent site for sharing files in a social network type setting. A site that is also available as a free app for sharing files person to person rather then storing on a server. A fun site for transferring files w/ a nice user interface. Also, a person has the ability to add a message to their file transferring email. A simple to use site (drag-n-drop) for sharing files that also integrates nicely w/ bit.ly for URL shortening. Go Pileus is one of the easiest file sharing sites around. All a user has to do is drag-n-drop files from their desktop right in their browser window on the Pileus window and items are transferred. It also integrates w/ bit.ly for making URL's shorter. Fotobabble, a neat application where people can post photos along with an audio description, has gotten even better. Now, users can grab images off the web by just using the photo's url address. Before, uploading images was the only option. It's one of the best Web 2.0 applications of the year for educators, and is on The Best Sites To Practice Speaking English list. It's a simple tool students can use to practice their speaking skills. It's very easy to use but, just in case, Russell Stannard at the great Teacher Training Videos has posted a good video tutorial on how to use the app.
