Kid Pix Activity

tools and progress

Hello, everbody. I'm so anxious to see your projects, I can hardly wait. How are they coming? Any hints as to what you are doing? I was just looking a a new tool, (or maybe just new to me) called Pixie www.tech4learning.com/pixie by Tech4Learning. It's seems easy and maybe something that could be used in this project. If you try it let us know what you think.

Audio clips again

Hi all,
Here in Hong Kong is already summer and it's much more pleasant to stay indoor under the aircon. That's why I had plenty of time to experiment with audio clips. I created my first vaw file and converted it to an mp3. It's great. I will show it to my students. Thank you Sarah and Susan for teaching me how to do it.

Interpretation

I presented at a conference on Saturday about UDL. I had an interesting comment- isn't universal a concept that should apply for all. I had not thought of it that way. I looked it up in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_design and I see how that could be an interpretation of universal design. How can we make the distinction? I also got the question "how is Universal Design different from differentiated learning?" Tough questions. Wish you guys had been with me to help field these questions :-)
