Last week the Grade 1 students started to use Voicethread for their current unit on Signs and Symbols. This week, I was able to join Ms. Emily's class to work with them to explore the iPad version of the application. The students loved using the iPad version. It was great to see their enthusiasm and smiling faces as they listened to the comments by their peers..
Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend TEDxBusan. During the break time they had several activities including a demonstration of the Oculus Rift. This is a very cool device that fully emerges the user in a virtual world. I had the opportunity to try it out and it was very fun.
