Welcome! What are we doing today?
Suggested steps for using multimedia resources for curriculum development and reporting:
1. Retrieve the Multimedia Reports document from the Y drive and save it to your own folder with a different name.
2. Make your word list to feature highlights from your program.
3. Decide which statistics you will use from Follett and sketch out how this will look in your final product.
3. Create a Wordle or Tagxedo (see description below).
4. If you haven't already done so, create a Glogster account and make a poster to use in your report.
5. Go to your Animoto account and create your movie.

1. Embedit.in.com shows documents on your website. It allows you to upload documents to their site and use a player to read the document even if you don't have the software.

Set up classroom gmail account
Some teachers find it to be an issue when students need to put in their email address when entering a site. This is often more of a problem when working with elementary children. However, Gmail has an interesting way around this.
Set up a gmail account for your school or class. Your students can use the email to enter the sites.
2. To do this, just add a + sign and the students first name (or classroom number or any other name shortcut that indicates which student is using this) after your gmail address. (your address+student1@gmail.com)
An example of this: techsummit@gmail.com
Then Johnny can use: techsummit+johnny@gmail.com
techsummit+keri@gmail.com
The children can’t send or receive email. If someone uses techsummit+keri@gmail.com to send a message to Keri, it will end up in the techsummit email box, where the teacher can moderate.
Note: When setting up a school-use gmail account for yourself, remember that students (and possibly parents) will see and use your email name, so choose wisely! Avoid account usernames that would be inappropriate.
