So, we hung them on the wall outside my room. How many of you have seen them? I'm guessing very few of you! Even if you walk through this hallway, we're all busy trying to get to class or <gasp> the restroom.<br />
<br />
Sway is one of the newest additions to the Office 365 suite of apps. I asked my students to use Sway for their latest presentations so we could all get familiar with the features. I created a Sway and linked the student Sways for easy access. (Sways within a Sway!) Presentations flowed smoothly with no need for students to log in to my computer, hand me a flash drive, or find an email with the shared file.<br />
<br />
After scanning their original political cartoons using Office Lens, another great app from Microsoft, we used Sway to virtually display their original cartoons.<br />
<br />
It is easy to share the Sway, or embed as I have done here. Now, I can share student work with faculty and family. If you don't feel comfortable using Sway, I am happy to help you create a digital gallery of student work. You can also use Word, PowerPoint - anything - to share the awesome work our students are producing. I would love to see what you are doing on your side of the campus!<br />

Here are some free, online alarm options for those of us (all of us) who need help with the bells. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.timeme.com/alarm-clock.htm" target="_blank">TimeMe</a> offers an alarm clock that allows you to setup multiple alarms with several sound options, including a traditional school bell. Your alarms are saved as long as you don't clear your cache. I was able to setup class times and tardy bells with different alarm sounds for each. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This won't help with the bell situation, but if you need something for setting time limits or timing an activity just Google "Timer" or "Stopwatch" and you'll get the Google online version. It's easy to use and you can project it for your students.</div>

Last week, someone Tweeted an article with the headline:<br />

<b><span style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/14/technology/gearing-up-for-the-cloud-att-tells-its-workers-adapt-or-else.html" target="_blank">"<span style="background-color: white; font-family: , "georgia" , "times new roman" , "times" , serif; font-style: italic; line-height: 2.375rem;">Gearing Up for the Cloud, AT&T Tells Its Workers: Adapt, or Else."</span></a> </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Wow</span>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><i>Adapt, or else.</i></b> Anyone who has taught for a few years is familiar with this concept. Yes, teachers are the ultimate adapters but sometimes we need help keeping up with the changes. One way you can keep up with the latest technology and resources is through professional development. But, we all have busy lives and schedules, so it's difficult to come early or stay after school for professional development. With SimpleK12, you can get all the PD you want, <b><i><span style="color: red;">in your pajamas. </span></i></b><br />
<br />
SimpleK12 provides live and on-demand webinars, and shared resources, on a variety of topics such as Digital Citizenship, Office 365, Social Media, STEM, etc. Sign-up to attend a live webinar, watch previously recorded sessions, or browse the Shared Resources section for tons of great stuff you can use in your classroom. There's also a Teacher Forum where you can connect with teachers from all over the world.<br />

Especially if I'm in a pinch, which I usually am. Several of you have asked for some printing tricks so here is the first in a series of printing tutorials.<br />

I have been (sometimes) participating in <a href="https://twitter.com/TechNinjaTodd">Todd Nesloney's</a> <a href="http://summerls2014.blogspot.com/">Summer Learning Series</a> and this week <a href="https://twitter.com/8amber8">Amber Teamann</a>, another Texas teacher, gives one of the best tips for sharing information via Twitter. Many parents are already on Twitter but some may not want to venture into this territory yet. But they still want to stay informed. The Fast Follow option does just that. Anyone with texting capability can receive updates from any Twitter account. Amber explains how to do this as well as the benefit of using Twitter for classroom and campus communication in <a href="http://bit.ly/1qy75TI">this post.</a> I'll be posting more about Twitter in the next few weeks but I encourage you to read Amber's post, sign up, and just see what it's all about.Melanie Claybarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02816920161230827989noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570805691858317283.post-44012249441589229052014-07-30T20:10:00.000-07:002014-08-02T07:21:34.861-07:00Social Media Icons - for free!If you are working on your website or will be working on it in the next few weeks, there are tons of free social media icons, like the ones to the right on this site, <a href="http://lcmhs.lcmcisd.org/page/100887_3" target="_blank">here</a>, and <a href="http://englishinthecloud.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
The icons I used can be found <a href="http://bit.ly/UMBh3f" target="_blank">here</a> or <a href="http://bit.ly/1nVeS0H" target="_blank">this list</a> has an extensive collection. You can also Google "social media icons" to find something else you might like.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Using these icons can make your website look more professional and give your viewers easy access to your information.</div>

This video shows you how to easily share links, documents, videos - anything with a URL - using <a href="http://edu.symbaloo.com/" target="_blank">Symbaloo</a> which you can also embed to your new teacher site on the new host. Here is my <a href="http://lcmhs.lcmcisd.org/page/100887_3" target="_blank">class page</a> with an example of what <a href="http://lcmhs.lcmcisd.org/page/145020_4" target="_blank">Symbaloo looks like embedded on that site</a>.<br />

<div>
Searching in Google is great but sometimes you have to wade through millions of results to find what you want. Enter <a href="http://www.wdyl.com/" target="_blank">What Do you Love?</a> from Google. WDYL takes your search and turns it into categories. This reminds me of the Pinterest layout. And I love Pinterest!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Searching within a site</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Some websites have a custom search engine you can use to search within the site. If it doesn't, you can use the "site" operator to create your own custom search. In the search bar (also called the omnibox), use the site operator in front of the URL to create the search. After the URL, put a space and then the search term. For example: <span style="background-color: yellow;">site:www.pablopicasso.org paintings</span><span style="background-color: white;"> This will search the pablopicasso.org website with the search term "paintings."</span></div>

Saturday I attended the 2014 Texas Google Summit in Brenham. Wow. There is so much to share. I decided to divide up the day into multiple posts.<br />
<h3>
<b><br /></b></h3>
<h3>
<b>Power searching in Google</b>. </h3>
Monica Martinez' session was all about getting better results from a Google search. Search operators are the key to narrowing down the number of hits.<br />
<ul>
<li><b>File Type</b> - Search for a specific file type. For example, if your lesson is about the Cold War, you could search for presentations that others have already created. You can change ppt to pdf, doc, jpg, etc. depending on the type of file you are looking for. If you're not sure what type of file or the extension of the file, <a href="http://www.fileinfo.com/filetypes/common" target="_blank">here is a list of just about any file you can think of</a>.</li>
</ul>
<br />

</div>
<ul>
<li><b>Image Search Options</b> - Use the advanced search options for images to find what you really need. After the initial search, choose the images tab. Then click on the Search tools menu to get more options. You can filter by size, color, type, etc. I especially like the Usage rights options. This enables you to narrow your search to copyright free images or images that you are allowed to use. </li>
</ul>
