Thanks Mark, I will definitely take a look.

I've actually used both! Good products.

Thanks Mark. We are using moodle with a one to one project in our high school and I was at first against it but now am the biggest supporter of it in our division. I appreciate the find.
Cheers,

Jody

Many thanks Mark! Will be in touch once I explore.

thank you for the suggestions - I'll take a look.

Thanks Mark. We are actually using MOODLE but this is a great resource.

Thanks for the info, I will definitely check this out.

Thank you Mark
I was able to gather information to support using Wikis in the classroom

Thank you Mark. I started using authorstream as you suggested, and uploaded my presentation on Openness and Social Networking there.

Hei Mark,

Thanks for the lead. I am using Moodle and guiding some beginning teachers to use the LMS...

Thanks! I will take a look at the ideas you gave me. I am currently building my own animated tutorials in Flash and my son is creating all the artwork for me.

Thanks Mark! I checked out your source, and am now exploring your sources in great detail. A quick way I've found to add animated tutorials in Flash is to create you images in PowerPoint, save the images as PNGs, add any hotspots in Fireworks, import PNGs into Flash Library and tween images in the timeline. You can either used a prepackaged control button or code your own in Action Script.

Dear Mark ~ Checking it out now! Thanks again! Kindest regards ~ Carola

Thanks Mark-I'll certainly check this out. Regards Mark

Thanks Mark. At the moment I am looking for teachers who would like to do some collaborating learning and less the technology. I know there are tones of optiond out there.

Thanks, Mark. I have never used WiZiQ. Our district has just set Moodle up and each school has their own Moodle site. I love Moodle and have spent the past two days working on a summer training for teachers. I had 21 signed up so I am encouraged. I will check out WiZiQ.

Thanks Mark,
I'll have another look at WizIQ - I've dabbled with authorstream, which certainly has potential - although it doesn't map PowerPoint as nicely as I'd like.

Mark,

Thank you so much. I will check it out!

Richard

Mark,

Thanks for the invite! This info is very useful!

Shelly

Thank you so much!! Those were great. I will definitely utilize these next year.

Mark, Thank you so much for the info. I've used AuthorStream and love it. I haven't used WiZiQ yet. I just signed up and can't wait to use it.

Thanks, Mark. I do use a virtual office and scribd and slide share. I know I need to go up a notch, and actually, learning how to create a class in moodle is high on my list. Thanks for the encouragement; it's a balance issue, as you know, I'm sure.

Hi Mark,

Many thanks for the links. I'll check them out!

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the links. They look really useful.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the links. We are really happy with Moodle as our school VLE and are looking forward to 2.0 and all the features on the roadmap there. Of course I'm equally excited about Google Wave and hope there will be some great developments for schools in the spirit of Open Source.

I'll check out your links but can say right now I enjoy using autherpoint lite and we can host this on our own servers well integrated in our VLE. But Authorstream is looking better and better too so thanks again!

Chris

Thanks! I'll do that - I'm looking for a way to provide professional development in disciplinary literacy online, or at least partially online - perhaps you have some ideas? V.

Thanks Mark,
This looks really interesting. I will certainly spend some time having a look at this.
Regards
Gail

Hi Mark,

thanks for your ideas. I will check them out. :)

Hi Mark
My name’s David and I’m a history teacher in Queensland, Australia. I use a lot of podcasting and online tools with my classes and am always looking for new ideas.
I host a group on diigo (it’s similar to delicious and very popular with teachers) for history teachers to share links, ideas and resources. It’s at http://groups.diigo.com/groups/history-teachers.
Please come along and join and share any sources or resources you use with the rest of us. See you there.
Regards,
David Hilton

Thanks Mark! I wasn't aware of WiZiQ, virtual classroom. Thanks for the link, I will definitely explore this.

Thanks Mark! Looks cool.

Thanks Mark for the suggestion.
I already use in a regular basis WizIQ with my students.
It is a nice platform for communication and collaborative work indeed.
Sincerely yours,
fernando

Thanks Mark. I am a wiziq and authorstream/slideboom user. I will check out the class you recommended.

Thanks for the resource. I will definitely look at this.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the link, i have started to look at the presentation, but don't have time at the moment. Will finish looking at it over the next couple of days. I will let you know what i think or how i might be able to use it.
Thanks again
Leanne

Mark,
Thanks for the link - I will totally look it over as we are looking to do some things with Wimba in the near future - but always nice to have more than 1 choice :-)
Erik

Thanks Mark for the resource! I will definitely look at this. I was unable to watch the recording of Nellie. I will try again.

Thank you I also have been a member of Tappedin.org, but have not used it because of the resistance with the adolescent students with working on line. If they see no value to themselves they will not use the program.
I will invesitgate your recommendation and use it with my grad students. Thank you for the support as I try to help teachers use technology in the classroom and especially with science topics

MJ

Thanks Mark, I'll check it out.

Thanks for the help. I will take a look.

Mark,
Thanks so much for the feedback and references. These are definitely worth a look.

Thanks Mark. I signed up for your class tomorrow night. See you then.

Thanks, Mark, for your advice. While I currently use moodle, authorstream looked like a tool I really need to get to know better. We are constantly creating powerpoints and really need a better way to view/respond/collaborate on them.

Thanks, Mark. Both tools look good.

Cheers,
meg

Thank you for your advise. Mark, how does WiZiQ compare to Elluminate in features? I'd like a side-by-side comparison. Also, I use Google Doc Presentations for slide share and I am quite happy with it. The feature I like most is the widget. Collaborators can keep modifying the slide show, while it stays embedded in all blogs and pages without any need to re-load.

Mark: Thanks a lot for your recommendation. I just finished watching the presentation and it was very informative. I'm glad to have joined CR 2.0. So far it has been very helpful.

Mark, thank you for responding. These aren't the features I'd like to compare. What I need is the comparison of tools like whiteboard, embeddable media, and other tools within the event.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for the recommendations. I looked at them and they are very interesting. I look forward to spending more time with these sites/applications to see how other educators are utilizing them!

Dear Mark
I spent some time on WIZIQ and it's overwhelming. I feel lost. It's too much. All I want is a simple, secure connection between two students via audio or video. I used vRoom by Elluminate and I thought it was great but the bandwidth is not ready yet. I encountered a lot of problems of connectivity. I'm looking for a tool that is free, simple and that doesn't use too much of bandwidth. The best tool with the most features is worthless if there is no connection. All I'd like to to is setting up eTandem partners communication simultaneously at the same time and in the same room.

I'll try to join you on Thursday.
