SAFESHARE

        SAFESHARE

     For this post I'm going to share a website called SafeShare. Safeshare is another website I tested out for the 7 events worksheet. It's a simple and easy to use software. Heres a quick and simple explanation to match.

        Safeshare is as self explanatory as the name. It allows you to share videos with your students easily with minimal security concerns. With safe share, you can create playlists for your videos, or groupings for your videos to be assigned to. When adding videos to your safeshare account you just simply copy and paste the url of the video. You then are given some prompts to fill out, or are simply filled out for you from the link you inserted. For example I did a youtube video of a read aloud, so the title was filled out and the description from the youtube creators page was copied and pasted as well. Of course as an educator you can change the titles and descriptions to match your classroom management or purpose of the lesson, etc. 

    By working with youtube videos, there can be many links or buttons within them. You have an option to hide those so students are able to stay on track. You even have the option to edit the start times and end times if you have only a specific section you want your students to see. 

    The simplicity, and purpose of this website is definitely a tool to be used in the classroom. I can already think how helpful this would be within my placement classroom, or even just as a parent. Kids wouldn't be watching something kid friendly that would later load into something like five nights at Freddy's. This is a necessity when showing videos to kids safely.

    Hi Caitlyn!
    I have never heard of safe share, but it sounds like such a useful tool. Something that can help us as a teacher to keep their student's safety online. I like that you can edit the videos start and end times on videos that are not your own. It will help when you find something beneficial in a video, but you do not need the whole video. Well done! Thank you for introducing me to new technologies!

    Hi there Caitlyn- I enjoyed reading your entry. I had not heard of this technology before, but it seems useful and effective. Which event did you put this technology in for the Seven-Event framework? Just wondering!

Post #7:BLACKBOARD

 In this post I will be discussing Blackboard, a technology from Dr. Wang's "Top 15 mentioned technologies in the classroom" List.           Blackboard seems to be very similar to Canvas. I believe this is the website my dad had to use when completing college courses online through the Army. It has your course and ways to sort/filter through them. It has Calendar, Messages, Grades, and a tab for assistance for your use. I played around with all the different tabs, but you also can learn through tutorials. In the grading tab its visually pleasing being organized by the class, then by the assignment. With each showing how many have submitted and have not.           It seems to have generated a fake class for me to try out in the free trial. In the grading tab it even had a spot labeled originality for their posts. Some students have a green check, others have an orange dash, and one student has a red x. I clicked on this stu...

Post #12: Kahoot

 In this post I will be discussing Kahoot, a technology listed in many slides, in Dr. Wang's powerpoint. Please use the link below to visit the website.  https://kahoot.com/         The first time I had participated in Kahoot was when I came to Spokane my sophomore year of high school. It was typically used as a brain break towards the end of class, and would be about disney, or any topics we chose. Then some teachers started using it as a review game for upcoming assessments.           Now going to the website it seems that there are a lot of different ways and usage for this website. I was only ever on the student side when using kahoot, so I didn't realize you could log on and create your own.  The customization of your assessments is great for the range of topics you can cover in classes. It allows teachers to make it personal for their class. It creates a great engaging opportunity for all classes and grades. I could ...
