Da quando Ginevra è entrata nella mia vita, 30 marzo 2013, i ritmi delle mie giornate sono mutati, dedicati a coccole, giochi e passeggiate. Di conseguenza la mia connessione alla rete si è drasticamente ridotta; a farne le spese è soprattutto questo blog, non così il mio album su flickr dove ho creato un set interamente dedicato alla cagnetta.…

If the students can warm up and use their brains, too, it’s even better! Recently, I learned about Pechaflickr from Alan Levine‘s #ETMOOC session: Web Storytelling: 50 Ways, 5-Card Flickr & Pecha Flickr.…

I began by using Pinnacle Studio on a standalone desktop computer–not connected to our SLOW school network. I liked it, but always ran into issues with rendering…crashing, taking FOREVER, formatting, etc. Eventually, we bought Flip cameras and were able to also purchase Adobe Premiere Elements and a new, much faster computer. What a difference…! The only problem is that we only had one editing computer in the school and of course each of the groups of students needed the one computer at the same time. This was always frustrating because I only had the students three times a week for 30 minutes each day. I was excited to learn about new online editing options through #etmooc Topic 2 Digital Storytelling. Unfortunately, I was distracted by #edcampstl and #metc13 and haven’t been able to explore some of the activities I was really looking forward to. Continue reading

Last week, I spent the majority of my #etmooc time trying new digital storytelling tools (GIFs, Flip Books, Visual Poetry, 5 Card Flickr) and posting about my explorations and learnings.

Mmmmmmm… yum.
Can’t I just have one? Or twenty?
I’ll need to wear out my sneakers to work that off.…

It integrates well with my Android devices and it allows for easy sharing. I especially like that I can send out links to my pictures that anyone can visit, even if they don’t have their own Flickr account.…
