    Great job! Seeing the younger kids corresponding via the computer is very inspirational. Wouldn't it be great to have them network across continents?

    Great job. I love your use of Moodle. I would like to be able to do something similar with reading groups, but my district is still very leary of the use of discussion groups with students. I may have to share your video so that they can see the positive effects.

    You are really great with the kids. Moodle looks like a wonderful way to network. This is an interesting look at the workings of your networked learning. I enjoyed your video--I'm not at all sure how to get a video from the net like you did from Oxford. Or were you there?

    Laurie-No surprises here, you did a great job as expected. Your use of Moodle would probably sway most administrators to implement it and try it out if unsure which method to use for discussion groups. -Brandy

    Cyndy, I downloaded RealPlayer and was able to then to put the video from there. RealPlayer then allows you to cut pieces of the full video to make short videos into my longer video. I hope that makes sense!!!

    Laurie,
    Loved it! I really liked the scene with the 3rd grade students writing predictions on Moodle about Charlotte’s Web. They were able to clearly tell you what and how they were doing it as well as letting you know they can accomplish the same thing at home; and they were enjoying posting and responding to their classmates. Hopefully I can find time to check Moodle out over summer break. Great job!

    Laurie:

    Excellent work on your video! You transitions were smooth and the audio was in sync with the images. I especially like the interaction with your students to demonstrate how simple networking is done in the elementary school. Going through it reminds me of my teachers who complain that young students cannot be involved in these kinds of activities. Networking is one of the basic elements of Siemens and Downes connectivism, which they believe is a new theory for the digital world. I therefore believe that this is a relevant issue, especially in distance education. Maybe you may find this link to Siemens article useful: http://www.elearnspace.org/Articles/connectivism.htm

    I enjoyed looking at your video!
    Soushira.

    Your video was great! I love that you included students working on Moodle and explaining how to use the open source software. I plan on using a wiki when teaching novel next year for my third grade students. It was nice to see that someone esle had tried it first. I think the students and the last clip of the keynote speaker were the highlights of the video. They gave real world application and inspiration! What a way to end the course! KUDOS!!!
