IWB Delicious
Thanks to Peter Bryenton for his comment on my Big Huge Labs post yesterday for pointing me towards this website that allows you to turn any of your images into a drag and drop jigsaw.
You can embed the code into your blog/VLE or just link direct to the page.
Try it out with one of your [...]
I’m not sure if The Big Picture will be doing a similar calendar tomorrow, but as we rapidly approach December, what could be better than reusing their amazing set of images from last year.
There are 25 jaw-dropping photographs from the Hubble Space Telescope. Put a different one up on your IWB every day to provide [...]
I mainly deliver Smartboard training in schools and colleges, but from time to time I do get asked to do corporate training for companies who have bought one for their meeting room and want to be shown how to use it.
It’s a shame that I only show them a fraction of the things they can [...]
It’s the 40th Anniversary of the Apollo landings and there’s a lot of good stuff on the web as we hit the actual anniversary of the launch of Apollo 11 (in about 30 mins time in fact)
WeChoosetheMoon is an excellent recreation of the mission in real-time. With audio and video links to experience the launch [...]
Here’s a couple of quick links to put a little awe and wonder onto your Interactive Whiteboard (or just your computer screen in general)
As a space geek I am always a sucker for the images that the Hubble Space Telescope takes of deep space. They are absolutely awesome.
And with the current Space Shuttle mission to [...]
Stupeflix is a new site that lets you turn images into video slideshows in the same way that Animoto does. It’s currently in Beta and while you can create videos for free it looks like there may be a charge in future.
You can add images by copying and pasting the image URLs froma site such [...]
I ran a training day last week for a college where we looked at Visualisers (sometimes called Document Cameras). Through the day we tried out some different things that you could do and I took some screen grabs.
I have put the screengrabs, and a few photographs from the day into a short presentation. Hopefully it [...]
I’ve just bought myself a hand held digital microscope for training days (the one’s I’ve used before are owned by the Scitt I work for)
I bought a Veho from Amazon for about £45. I’m quite pleased with it, although the one annoyance is the software coming on a mini-cd which wont go into my laptop [...]
Here’s another website that can be used to make photo slideshows. It’s called PhotoPeach and it seems pretty easy to use, and like my favourite websites it’s free!
You can upload photos yourself, or take them from a set added to Flickr or Facebook. It doesn’t look as flash as Animoto, and there is less choice [...]
One of the nice things about using an interactive whiteboard is that it gives you the chance to use high-quality images. The fact that you can project digital images is much better than having to use overhead projectors and acetates, and much easier to use than a slide projector.
You can make an impressive start to [...]
