Two ways to show youtube clip within Powerpoint

I have done a presentation to try and show how to show two different ways of showing a youtube clip.  I prefer the full screen version.  Just click through the slides and use the home button to return to start. I hope this works and is of use. I'm afraid (and gutted!!) I can't get it to be as interactive as I designed it...open to suggestions?

Possible dodgy widget!

Be aware that the calendar widget seems to be corrupt your blog.  I added it to my website and it kept redirecting me to another site.

It shows this page

And then it won't let you get off the page without clicking one of the options, you will then be taken to this page

 

All you then need to do is remove the widget...if you can get back to your layout page...hope this helps and good luck!

How to embed a power point into your blog!

Going to give this site a try soon!

Mobile technology

We unofficially reviewed some iPads and tablets during a lesson; we concluded that they all were good in their own right, but there is a difference in how some operate.  There was no outright winner, as they all did what they said on the tin: it was down to personal preferences as which one an individual liked. One thing I didn’t like about one of them, was the arrogance of the company who makes them, thinking that they don’t need a virus protection...maybe William Tell will be resurrected and shoot an arrow into them!!??

My experience with mobile technology is purely “leisurely”, I own a laptop, Tab 2 and a mobile phone and all I use them for is browsing, phoning, social media and a small amount of work.  I have not used my technology for learning...but I think that’s going to soon change!

Another resource that may be of use!

I have been pointed in the direction of another good resource that may be of use; so I thought I'd share it as it may come in handy for the future!

A teaching aid that might be of use!

Guys and gals, I came across this website and thought it might be of use to you all...take a look and see what you think! The teachers TV has lots of clips that could be of use.

Graphic organiser.

This film was shown to me about mind mapping and how it can help children and adults who are diagnosed with SpLD's to present learning in a visual context.

It is a bit long winded but there are some good points made.
