"Yes I still cant view the VT. Says I dont have access contact administrator.
Well I was thinking we could share 1 artifact that represents our class? Or maybe its an image of something? It would be one image only and at least give us something for…"
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"Hi Lissette, Jason and Caroline:
Where are we at with this project? I followed the instructions to share my VC with you and apparently it did not work. Do I try again?
Jason: I really like your suggestion of the artifact, could you please explain a…"
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"Sorry Lissette.

Do you want to try on you VT and then I add mine?

"So how to put the VT together? Do we send images to one person and they put it together and then we comments audio, video?"
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"I believe this link must work.

Yes, I'm having problems accessing the link as well due to insufficient privileges. I believe we need to be invited."
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"Hi:
I will check my VC.
I love the idea of the artifact....How could that work out? "

"Catalina
When I try to access your VT it tells me I dont have permission to view. Anyone else having this problem?"
Book Club MemberJason Graham commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline
"Voicethread is fine by me.
Some ideas:
What is a handshake and why is it important?
Handshakes are symbolic and also act as a 'record' of first official contact. This might be important when looking back at how the…"
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"No worries !!!
So what shall we do? Voicethread? One slide per group each member using their own picture?
We need to be able to model it and to provide some guidelines. What do you think about that?

Caroline Black commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"Sorry - I have fallen a bit behind... I like the idea of Voice Thread... It seems a bit more interactive. i also like the idea of a picture rather than an avatar, but to each their own."
Catalina Valenzuela commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline"Hi Lisette! Thank you for the entry.
Here is perfect ! So we can have feedback.
I like the idea of VoiceThread. I really like the app.
Might I suggest a slide per school? or per project? So everyone is in a "known" place at the…"
Lisette Casey commented on Lisette Casey's blog post Collaborate and Communicate - Wiki Project - Tablets in Education"Helen,
Tablets have been a smashing success in the middle school and elementary. In the high school, a little slower to adopt but we will get there.

Collaborate and Communicate - Wiki Project - Tablets in Education
Working on the wiki with Tasha was great fun. We quickly communicated via the wiki discussion and comment tools and began our research.
From their the video creation was relatively simple as long as it involved an aspect of innovation, invention or prediction. I've always loved the Rip Van Winkle metaphor to education and thought it was appropriate given the transformation that technology can bring when integrated well.…

Planning a handshake with Catalina, Jason and Caroline
What is a handshake and why is it important?
Handshakes are the first form of acknowledgement between two people or more. They confirm that all involved are in agreement of what is to come. Sometimes handshakes can seal a deal. In a global project the handshake does just that. We are introduced to others ready to embark on a similar voyage. This handshake is exciting as it is often the first time many of the students in the project will interact with…

Peer Review - bonus Challenge
Since I don't have a currently have a group of students I thought I would reflect back on a prior experience for this challenge.
A few years ago my students took part in a peer review of the 2010 FlatClassroom Project which linked 11 different schools in 6 different countries. These FCP students had been creating wiki pages and videos that help explain the main topics discussed in the book The World is Flat by Thomas Friedman.
Our task was to review and comment on their… Continue
