Fresh Look Fridays - Symbaloo - (12-10-2012)

 

Just a quick little ditty for your first Fresh Look Fridays post of October.  I have seen a number of different tweeps discuss this site over the past little while, and thought it was worth mentioning in a blog post.

Symabloo is a great place to deposit websites and links for an individual, group or class to use.  I love the way it allows you to create your own sub "folders" around a certain topic or theme, and then place all the bookmarked information there.  Plus, it's fun to look at.

Click here to see a sample Symbaloo created by the lovely folks that participate in #kinderchat every week (people whom teach kindergarten having Twitter conversations).  Play around and see all of the amazing online resources this group has compiled over the course of time.

I'd love to see this used in the classroom as a "choose your own adventure" center of sorts, or placed in the hands of students to create a demonstration of important ideas, places and websites associated with a particular topic.

I'd love to hear about any of the ways that you might be currently using this awesome resource in education!

A classroom educator for 10 years, I’m now thrilled to be working full time training teachers and helping them integrate technology into their classrooms.

Originally from Calgary, I’m thrilled to be living and working in British Columbia and starting to get to know the fabulous educators in my new province.

I fully confess that I am a tech-geek, and thus always brought technology into the classroom with my students. As soon as I got my hands on my first SMART product – I was a convert – and never taught without one again! I was fortunate to be part of several technical trials with SMART – including the SMART Table, which I enjoyed using primarily with my Grade One students.

I spent some time as an Education Technology Consultant and developed my passion for bringing technology into the hands of kids & helping teachers to maximize the tech tools within their schools.

I also love sports, movies and am a classically trained singer.
