Some tech tools

Today some tech tools were discussed. One of those tools was Zamzar www.zamzar.com a neat converter for those times that you need a change in file type. Another was Penzu www.penzu.com penzu is a creative way of journaling online. It has a neat notebook paper look. The other was a favorite of mine Animoto www.animoto.com its a slideshow creator that is very cinematic. You can add music, text and pictures and it creates a unique slideshow. These tools were introduced by Region One Technology Integration Specialist Sandra Cadena to 23 Language Arts teachers at PSJA Memorial High School. The teachers were awesome they ran with all the tools introduced today. We also used some flipcams and had them create small video clips edited on Microsoft Movie Maker.
