I just got a snowball camera from my students (hurray!) and wonder if anyone has instructions and/or lessons for podcasting w/Garage Band and/or Audacity that would be appropriate for 4th graders. Thank you.

Dear colleagues,

We are working on a project on how we can utilize Web 2.0, not only Social networking, in foreign language teaching. Your contributions, suggestions, and ideas are highly appreciated. I will keep you informed about the progress. Please let me know if you are interested.

Kind regards.

New to group today... we have 13 MacBook carts in our building... and a cohort of 20 teachers with MacBook Pros who are working in a network HERE. The remaining 70 staff come online this June and the building will certainly need more student laptops once remaining staff integrate Web 2.0 technology even further.

Graham,

if you will be using MacOS X Server you don't need anything else because the server software already includes this service. Take a look at the server page, specially the net install technical brief. Hope this helps.

We are just in the process of switching from PC to Mac. What is the mac eqivalent to Norton Ghost for imaging a mac from the server?

We have over 4000 macs in our school system K-12 and we love mac and all the ilife software (Iphoto, Imovie, Iweb, Garageband). We also have several SMART boards which work great on MACs except for the Flash Toolkit gallery.

Full time Mac user here too - I managed to sneak one into my classroom on my meagre departmental budget (an oldish eMac - new when I bought it). So far I've converted the Head of Music, the Network Manager and the Deputy Head to Macs.

The benefits - no viruses (our school network is currently plagued), multiple music and movie formats for all your presentation and teaching needs, speedy processing, iMovie for easy editing (not iMovie 08 though).

I also use Micrograde software for my mark book. As far as smartboarding goes, I experimented with the eBeam, but couldn't quite get it to calibrate properly. However this did seem like a good idea at the time so I might give it another try - if I do I'll report back.
