- russeltarr: @historyfriend Why thank you, I couldn't possibly comment on the merits of http://bit.ly/jdCOmyself!
 drkorfhage: Google docs. I use it with students all the timerusseltarr: I tend to use a service like kissyoutube.com to download YouTube videos prior to a lesson rather than rely on them streaming classroomtools: Have any of you used National Geographic's Map Machine site? http://t.co/P2nSSYT historyfriend: Will this chat be archived anywhere? So many resources - cannot keep up! - classroomtools: @historyfriend That is almost an understatement, but @RusselTarr promises an archive will be up tomorrow.
 HodderHistory: So many links to click; so little time!- russeltarr: @HodderHistory The full archive of the chat today will be available offline tomorrow - no need to worry!

MelissaLininja: i replaced my website (fairly static) w/ a wordpress which i think will be more engaging (blog format) russeltarr: Has anyone else been playing around with QR codes in the classroom? russeltarr: I've created a QR "Scavenger Hunt" Generator at classtools which you might find useful! http://t.co/fHDWpId - historyfriend: @russeltarr I am assuming all would need smartphones for QR codes. Is that true?
- russeltarr: @historyfriend I will get students in groups, only one person in each needs a smartphone, will research availability in advance
johnsonmaryj: Student-produced QR codes to build context around a primary source. I need to blog about this!ConnollyTrevor: Have had QR codes up to start a discussion and introduce but haven't managed to use them as of yet - russeltarr: @ConnollyTrevor That's a good point - but a facebook page which only runs for duration of a trip more likely to work
MrsThorne: will an ipod touch scan QR codes if it's not connected to wifi? Assuming the QR code's not a link- russeltarr: @MrsThorne QR code doesn't need to go to a website - it's just an encoded text file - so no wifi needed!
- johnmayo: @russeltarr webcam will work as well
- historyfriend: @russeltarr @historyfriend My colleague raves about the Black Death activity and Life in the Trenches is an all time favorite.
- MelissaLininja: @russeltarr only to put one on my syllabus so they bookmark our class site! i'd like to learn more!
- johnsonmaryj: @MelissaLininja I promise to let know when I've written a post about QR codes & primary sources.
- MelissaLininja: @johnsonmaryj thank you!

HodderHistory: is proving way more interesting than the the transfer deadline news so far hs001pla: Has anybody got any ideas for interesting tech to use for an primary after school history club? - kenradical: @hs001pla totally use @Historypin it's brilliant and easy to use. They could find photos from older family and pin them

 historc: new favourite I haven't even used yet,but am super excited about has to be polleverywhere.com !- MrsThorne: @historc I love polleverywhere too! I tried it with a Y9 class, it worked really well til one of them texted in something rude!
- historyfriend: @historc We used it today in opening meetings - has promise, but works better for mc than free response.
russeltarr: Has anyone got some ideas about useful ways of using offline tools like Word / Powerpoint? Or useful bits of software?- classroomtools: @russeltarr Here is another Excel workbook I've created for use in social studies classrooms. http://t.co/xxMjEcd
- russeltarr: @classroomtools I'll be bookmarking these for sure - Excel is something I haven't utilised fully thus far
russeltarr: I think the old freeware version of MindMan (http://t.co/lTOJqKE)is a great offline mindmapping toolsmallbutfeisty: How am I going to save all these great resources in when not at laptop!?! - classroomtools: @smallbutfeisty There will be an archive of all today's tweets going up tomorrow.
russeltarr: We'll be discussing Twitter and Facebook specifically later, but take a look at this anyway - lovely tool! http://t.co/oeMEydgjohnmayo: Powerpoint can be used as a decision making game using hyperlinked slides johnmayo: using a macro you can export text from a text entry box in ppt into a separate text file historyfriend: Gotta go - meetings continue...Thanks for the great ideas. I will be sure to check the archive later. - classroomtools: @historyfriend Thanks for participating Molly. Always great to read your thoughts & contributions.

- russeltarr: @historc Thanks - the "create a fake tweet" tool makes students sum up a character briefly / effectively http://t.co/nXtN7CT
russeltarr: I like the way that the diary of @samuelpepys is brought to life on Twitter. Anyone know of other similar examples?- kenradical: @russeltarr @kennedy1961 is fun
russeltarr: I set up @historypods to pull in RSS feeds from various history podcasts and display them neatly in one placehistorc: Sadly school filtering policies mms using social networking very difficult - johnsonmaryj: @historc Glad to see US school librarians designating a Banned Websites Day to advocate for openness: http://t.co/DwkVWo2
- russeltarr: @johnsonmaryj I like the way students can zoom in to small visual details for sourcework analysis in Prezi
 _miss_moss_: I'd LOVE to be able to use facebook and twitter but they're both blocked - any tips for convincing SLT to unblock them?- RitaOates: @_miss_moss_ How do you want to use them? What alternatives would be ok in your district? Lots of safe options for connecting.
_miss_moss_: Blogs can replace a VLE if (like me) you don't have one!- GoTweetHistory: @_miss_moss_ lot of ppl only hear about the neg effects of social media. why not show them the positives? like :)
russeltarr: I think Edmodo is used by a lot of schools to provide a safe alternative to Facebook- MrsThorne: @russeltarr there's some issue with privacy on Edmodo though, isn't there? Isn't it owned by a data capture company?
- russeltarr: @MrsThorne You may know more than me about that, I have no experience of Edmodo directly myself...good point
kenradical: Schools will come round to social networking, they eventually unblocked YouTube in most schools, annoying waiting thoughrusseltarr: I made a Facebook group so students could post / parents could see events on our residential trip (http://t.co/Gk7dTSd) _miss_moss_: 'Fakebook' is SO useful! And well loved - mattbuxton10: @_miss_moss_ Try convincing them to temporarily unblock for one class, then create a compelling case study to share across schl
MrsThorne: I used Facebook with my GCSE students: they join a group & I email bits of revision material out to itrusseltarr: OK. I'll list some positive ways I've used Facebook in class... drkorfhage: I found blogging with students to be good though drkorfhage: I tried Twitter with students but didn't get much response. - russeltarr: @drkorfhage Agreed - Facebook is more popular with students than Twitter. I've tried both!
- drkorfhage: @russeltarr Can you use Facebook as a discussion tool?
russeltarr: I have a Facebook page for IB History (http://t.co/ByTZVXS)which pulls in various RSS feeds. Simple to use.russeltarr: RSS Graffiti is a great app for Facebook - pull in feeds from relevant blogs onto one page, students then "like" it johnsonmaryj: Prezi a sub for PPT, gr8 for focusing on primary source details. Can download & show offline. http://t.co/mlR4IH4  RitaOates: Check out history videos (many student-created) at http://t.co/MG8qGOp http://t.co/1mbpofc
 mattbuxton10: PowerPoint is very flexible; annotating/labelling/cropping/create diagrams with smartart/writing/summarising all-in-one
russeltarr: I used a hashtag on Twitter so students could post thoughts about residential trip as it happened. Facebook more popular though  iSchoolAdvocate: Happening NOW: a live one-hour “chat†on Twitter inviting history teachers from all over the world. Too cool!
russeltarr: I set up @historypods to pull in RSS feeds from various history podcasts and display them neatly in one place iSchoolAdvocate: First Intnl "Tech in the History Classroom" - discussion points here http://t.co/QG0xBKS(Official chat ends in 15mins) ConnollyTrevor: Most of my students feel FB is their territory, they don't want to mix school up in that. I like to try engage through twitter russeltarr: I'd really recommend www.todaysmeet.com to create a "backchannel" like we're doing here - no need for using Twitter! kenradical: For me Facebook is personal and Twitter is professional. Kids like this explanation and has seen their use of Twitter increase - misssball: @kenradical agree. But I also have pages & groups on my FB to link with Ss but keep my social separate
- classroomtools: @kenradical Thanks for participating. See you soon!
russeltarr: I think posterous.com is better for a class blog than Facebook - less likely to be blocked tooConnollyTrevor: I meant to say I'd like to try engage through use of # on twitter- hope to try this year. - russeltarr: @ConnollyTrevor I know some teachers get students writing tweets at different points in time from different characters
russeltarr: This website is great for ideas about how to use Twitter in a historical context http://t.co/zEuszPn 4goggas: Following
russeltarr: My students use Audacity to record ‘reports’ of events, then import the mp3 into Moviemaker to turn it into a film russeltarr: I have found Facebook great for keeping in touch with ex-students, many then visit us back in school to give talks to students russeltarr: Great differentiation - some students write a report; more ambitious turn it to Audacity; most ambitious turn that into Movie drkorfhage: I've used Diigo as a good tool for collaborative research. 4goggas: Good to hear that RSS graffiti works well. Reviews say it's iffy? Doesn't work 90% of the time? - russeltarr: @4goggas RSS Graffiti can be dodgy sometimes, usually ok...
 simon_pb: we are banned from using twitter, but we use mock ups to pick out key points and arguments for topics we cover- 4goggas: @russeltarr Am finding great uses for Facebook pages. Need to develop simple apps to get page to do what I want. Love polls!
- johnsonmaryj: @russeltarr Cute! "Those who forget history are doomed to re-tweet it." http://t.co/MSTQg7d
- RitaOates: @russeltarr Other social networking tools in History class? ePals Student Forums: http://t.co/qBc3FZA (58 lang. translated)
russeltarr: My social bookmarking tool of choice is Delicious - my links are here - feel free to plunder! http://t.co/tggQQE6drkorfhage: Use a recording program (I've used Garage Band) to have students record think-alouds on primary sources- MsSandersTHS: @drkorfhage do you have to use moodle? Schoology has a direct import from moodle option if you want to use both
- drkorfhage: @misssball @MsSandersTHS Agreed. But we have to post assignments to moodle.
simon_pb: Sounds good. I like the Fakebook program too - good for role of personalities and development of eventsrusseltarr: Take a look at my "categories" at Delicious (right hand side) for year-group specific links http://t.co/tggQQE6 russeltarr: If you're using Twitter, then follow #sschat to start connecting with history/geography teachers in the USA. drkorfhage: Does anyone use Moodle? Its the CMS for my school. - misssball: @drkorfhage yes, I do
russeltarr: In my experience integrating Moodle with Google Apps is essential. Moodle too clunky on its own.- misssball: @russeltarr I prefer Schoology to Moodle
- drkorfhage: @misssball Any things that have worked well?
- drkorfhage: @russeltarr So what do you use for each?
mattbuxton10: Does anyone know any art galleries/museums/castles etc etc with online presences particularly worth a visit??- RitaOates: @mattbuxton10 Smithsonian Institution resources targeting K12 students: http://t.co/2kvdcVN
johnsonmaryj: Has anyone used Voicethread to improve questioning skills based on visual primary sources?- hadleyjf: @johnsonmaryj I haven't but it sounds like a great idea!
russeltarr: Here's another use of Twitter I tried out for history classes - good for lesson starters = @historynewsdrkorfhage: I've used Google docs for collaborative work, but use forums on Moodle a lot, esp. to open a class. - misssball: @drkorfhage Moodle doesn't appeal to Ss. Fine for org, but Schoology has the look + elements I need. @MsSandersTHS converted me
- russeltarr: @drkorfhage Moodle requires re-uploads of documents whenever edited. So I just link from Moodle to a Google Doc instead
kenradical: Thank you lots of new ideas. Come back soon! A nice way to start the new term oldnick103: looking v worthwhile. Unfortunately I'm rehearsing Shareware tonight> will read archive later. Is this a regular time slot?
- russeltarr: @oldnick103 This is the first , we very much hope to make it a regular thing!
- RitaOates: @russeltarr Can search across 200 countries for K12 history teachers in ePals. This search has >4,000: http://t.co/AA5lhgp
