Welcome to unitedstreaming™
I'm in a workshop right now on this product. I really hope that my school will purchase a subscription to this service that provides full length videos, clips, and images to schools. This footage can be downloaded or streamed to computers.The searching capabilities are excellent; one can find videos according to grade level, subject matter, and individual state standards. The quality of the videos looks good and I like how they have ASCD professional development videos available. You can also make quizzes at this site and there is a calendar online which correlates videos to important dates. Plenty of support is offered for incorporating video clips into other progams such as Inspiration, PowerPoint, and Timeliner. I can see uses for this with my Lab Schools kids as well as with my NLU students.

The workshop is being held at the Michigan Avenue Apple Store in their fourth floor classroom. All I can say is, WOW! I'll post pictures later.

I designed a scavenger hunt for my students and Scott Murphy did a presentation on the iLife suite of software in the theatre. When I arrived at the store, several students were already there. And, they had figured out how to do video chats already! I had told them on Tuesday that creating a video chat would be one of the requirements of the scavenger hunt. So I was impressed that they had already done this by the time I arrived on the scene. Their enthusiasm got me pumped for the field trip in general! At the beginning of the theatre presentation, Scott asked our group what their impressions were of Apple. And, the usual comments were discussed... Apple products are more expensive.... not pervasive in the business community... etc. By the end of the presentation, I think the group fully understood about what makes Apple stuff so unique. Scott was a trooper and spend way more time than I expected lead...

TagCloud - View Cloud I found out about this free service while looking at someone's blog from NECC. You add rss subscriptions, and a list is generated of keywords based on what you've subscribed to. Pretty cool!
