Last Day 5520

Today Julie shared some information about Skype, a free source for internet to internet calls for Skype users.  If a call is made from a Skype user to a non Skype user there is a small fee.  The advantage being not only cost but the ability for video as well as audio.

Rob showed us Picasa, a free photo sharing and editing site.  You can also order prints and make slide shows from your albums.  Iphoto is a mac based free program that allows you to (among other cool things), make and order photo books.  Windows Photo Story is a free quick slide show program limited to only photos.

We discussed current issues in DE including accreditation questions from university to university.  We also talked about the difference between making individual accommodations on a university level compared to the public schools.  

This has been a very enlightening course, making me feel more confident in incorporating a few of the vast amount of tech tools into my teaching.
