We launched our after school help sessions with a look at Big Huge Labs. This great site let's students work with pictures in exciting ways. Perhaps create posters, or playing cards, or calendars or even colleagues. This site can do so many things so easily.

The main site is here: http://bighugelabs.com/

How can you share these creations? Perhaps collect them and build a powerpoint, or make a lightbox gallery in your eCommunity course, or print them off and show them off in your room.

Thanks to those who joined us, and we hope to see you next week. We're thinking, maybe bubbl.us the great online brainstorming site.

BITT 2: Video and Moodle Navigation
This episode is more of a how-to and less of a conversation. OK, who am I kidding. I'm the only one here so there is NO conversation! Still, in this episode I try to walk you through working with video and adding navigation to your course page in eCommunity(Moodle). There are a few sound issues so I apologize for the sudden changes in volume. Hopefully we'll have those worked out by next show. Enjoy.
Host: Jonathan Konrad

BITT 0001: The Sound of Our Voice
Hosts: Jonathan Konrad and Wanda Dechant
Notes: As the launch episode for this podcast I'd keep the expectations low, but I was surprised at how easily Wanda slipped into the podcast lingo and rhythm. We discussed a few cool bits of technology like;

Skype
Moodlerooms
Searchme.com
VoiceThread.com.

You can also catch Wanda teaching how to use elluminate, Tuesday mornings at 10:00am to 11:30am. Just check the schedule at http://tiny.cc/tech_ed
