Flip Video Camera
I have discovered a fabulous new tool that I can use in my classroom, the flip video camera! I recently learned how to use this wonderful device. As a novice, I am still exploring how to use it in my classroom to enhance instruction with technology. I am capturing images and videos of my students as they create materials for their portfolios. These files are deposited in a share folder where my students and administrators can view them and critique them. I am excited about this new tool! It is also extremely user friendly. I just love that I am an old dog learning new tricks. What new things have you discovered lately? I'm always snooping around for new ideas.
