I was wondering if you could/would offer any advice on how to get started with wikis? I work in a technology challenged area, and am trying to move in the technology direction. Any suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />M.

Karen also teaches 3rd grade and she can probably answer some specific things for you.

The science of rocks and minerals." AMAZING! If you or Karen can offer any advice for a fairly new teacher trying to incorporate technology into her class please do! I also have several questions I would like to ask if that is o.k. I want to thank both of you for the time and energy that you are both putting into your classes, it truly is an inspiration.

I use the audio portion for the animated voice. I have the students draw a picture of their character and then we use a program called "Crazy Talk" to animate them. I use Vegas Video to edit everything together and Chroma Key the backgrounds. Most of the animation effect can be created just using Crazy Talk. Hope this helps.Doctor Loopy's House of Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02530683233251036579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141451701391477566.post-298161501754109122009-04-02T19:40:00.000-05:002009-04-02T19:40:00.000-05:00I loved your Hot Dog Book Review glog.
