“Fast Five” for March 2011


5 Ways to Integrate Tech4Learning’s “Share” into the Curriculum

 On Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011, the FCPS Enrichment Specialists got a chance to try out the new program “Share” in the computer lab at TJ Middle School.  Participants made a quick 3 page presentation with images and text about the Tsunami that recently hit Japan.  After experimenting with the program the group shared ideas on how to use Share with students across the curriculum.

1.  Interactive Digital Brochures - replace the trifold or paper brochure with an interactive .pdf
2.  Book Reports on a Gallery Display in the computer lab or online
3.  Guided Research with resources compiled by the teacher for students to access through Share
4.  The NEW Glogster - create interactive presentation directly to the school server
5.  Digital Portfolios - collect all the students work, online projects, and multimedia in one document.
