Blog:13

        
  
                I watched a video on ted.com about a guy who knows a lot about computers. When he was a kid his teachers told his dad that he was good at math and art. But his dad didnt like that he was good at art only that he was good at math. so his dad bought a computer wich at the time could only show text and he wanted to learn alot about these computers. Then when he was older he got a different computer wich could show color pictures. Wich at that time was new and cool. And he wanted to learn more about computers. And they wanted to know why computers didnt respond to sound. then he created something that would.

On Thursday we discussed AUGMENTED REALITY. How is AUGMENTED REALITY being used in the classroom. CLICK HERE FOR EDUDEMIC AUGMENTED REALITY *Editor's Note: This is one of my ALL-TIME favorite websites.

After you've read through the article, list the five AR websites that interest you the most, describing them briefly (You may cut and paste the information from Edudemic):
1.Project Glass:One of the most ambitious augmented reality initiatives comes straight from Google, who believes its Project Glass holds potential far beyond the classroom.
2.Driver’s ed:Toyota teamed up with Saatchi & Saatchi to deliver the world’s cleanest and safest test-drive via augmented reality.
3.Experience:Third graders participating in the 12-year-old School in the Park program engage with AR via smartphones as they explore Balboa Park, the San Diego History Center, and the world-class San Diego Zoo
4.Second Life:Because it involves a Stephenson-esque reality where anything can happen, Second Life proved an incredibly valuable tool for educators hoping to reach a broad audience — or offering even more ways to learn for their own bands of students.
5. Imaginary Worlds:With PSPs in hand, Mansel Primary School students embarked on an artistic voyage, where downloaded images and QR codes merge and provide challenges to draw up personalized environments.

Choose three of the above websites from above and paste their featured links here:
1. blogs.imediaconnection.com   drivers ed
2. plus.google.com/+projectglass   project glass
3. /www.joystiq.com   Imaginary Worlds

Of the three websites that you choose to feature, which of them do you find the most beneficial to learning in the classroom with AR? Explain why you choose the site you did! (This is a two step question, answer both parts!) 

I think that project glass would be cool. I want to try that. I think it was cool that they try to do that. And i think that we should try that.



Take a screenshot of the AR site that you liked the most and paste it here (ask a classmate if you do not remember how to do this - NETWORK!). Save the picture to your H-drive first, the use the BLOG tool PICTURE to post it.









The last think you'll need to do today is check out this link: HOW MUCH WOOD WOULD A WOOD CHUCK CHUCK IF..
