It was just him, I don't think he had any technological back-up, no slides or anything. It was riveting, he was captivating and wonderful throughout!<br /><br />Just him standing on the stage talking!<br /><br />So what I mean is, fancy gimmicky tools are great, but not necessary.Nancyhttp://mrssarno.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015200.post-91597948392124335242011-02-02T09:01:25.406-08:002011-02-02T09:01:25.406-08:00I really love the positive spin about poverty in t...I really love the positive spin about poverty in that movie!

The information relates to an article my grade 8 students have read about Africa. I just found a link to complex thinking and "screenagers." <br /><br /><a href="http://www.ascd.org/publications/educational-leadership/feb11/vol68/num05/Too-Dumb-for-Complex-Texts¢Sherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608627538638941887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015200.post-6791269532325502342011-01-28T15:36:24.116-08:002011-01-28T15:36:24.116-08:00Hi Laurie, thanks for sharing this embedded video....Hi Laurie, thanks for sharing this embedded video.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could have that type of technology in our classrooms to create lessons and engage our kids?

(if that makes sense).<br /><br /> Loved the video you included for a several reasons. 1. It was captivating - it was really an interesting topic. 2. It kept me wondering how it was made?

I wonder what it would look like if you added education as a variable. <br /><br />Thanks for your nice comment on my blog.

You can switch back and forth between them, and paste in html from other sources.<br /><br />Thanks for posting the video.
