Donna Murdoch replied to Michael's discussion 'Backchannel Programs --Has anyone actually used them in class? What do you think?'
There are a couple of other backchannel options.  One is Twitter, with a hashtag for the class you are teaching.  Another is Google Moderator, which helps the teacher/instructor see the most important questions as they rise to the top.

Donna Murdoch replied to Nicholas Carl Martin's discussion '9 Web Conferencing Platforms for Education and Collaboration 2.0: What Should Your Organization Use?'
There's a really simple one that is not as popular and it's free - believe it or not it's AIM  http://www.aim.com/av/  and it's in beta.  The beauty is no sign up, no sign in, no software to download.  You go…

Donna Murdoch replied to Ed Gonsalves's discussion 'Using Wikis to Build A Masters course'
Hi Ed - I've used Webspirations (I believe it is www.mywebspirations.com) which is best used in the brainstorming phase. It is collaborative and free, and many people can work on it together....see what you think. Maybe it is not what you are…

Donna Murdoch replied to Ed Gonsalves's discussion 'Using Wikis to Build A Masters course'
Using a wiki is great provided all participants are very familiar with how to use it and its features. That would be my primary advice. Otherwise you will have a big technology learning curve ahead. The other alternative is to start with a simple…

Donna Murdoch replied to Brandi's discussion 'Twitter for Professional development--how do you keep it all straight?'
Agree with Jeff - you just have to realize you won't keep up with it all. Using Google Reader and establishing a good stream of news, as well as following twitter (and participating in #edchat if you can) is probably the most you can do on a…

Donna Murdoch replied to Tammy Moore's discussion 'Google Waves Projects of Teachers of Google Wave Members' in the group Teachers in Google Wave
I don't find Wave too convenient either. It would be easier if it was linked to my regular Gmail account, but they made an entirely separate sign on and I don't usually think to sign on. But I am still experimenting with it.

DVD is a great idea if you don't have internet access. Then you can do anything you want.

Donna Murdoch replied to Kelly Walsh's discussion 'I just started experimenting with Jing - are there comparable tools out there?'
Screenr is great, sorry I didn't see this one before - thanks for the recommendation. It's an easy Jing, although it doesn't seem you can export the files to MP4 if you want to. Pretty much for your own archive within Screenr or for…

Donna Murdoch replied to Jeff Branzburg's discussion 'Twitter?'
You are all far more experienced than I, but if you look at the most recent MacArthur Studies about digital youth, you will see their concern is the same as mine. The more we ignore how they communicate out of school, the more school becomes a…

You can still sync iCal to Google Calendar. http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99358 That should explain. If you have further questions just ask. I have iCal syncing to Google Calendar and my Blackberry.
