ClassPager for SMS and Polling Students!

Wow! I am really enjoying using a new resource called ClassPager. It is 100% free! It allows teachers to create class alerts with no limit on the number of students (or parents). Additionally, it is private. It also allows you to set up sms polls (they can be free text polls). There are a lot of teacher controls over student accounts and yet it does allow for anonymity. In addition it DOES NOT use shortcodes (it uses real phone numbers) so it will work with just about any cell phone (YAY for Metro PCS!). This also allows people who don't have cell phones but do have iPod iTouches to participate with Free Texting Apps (because they give you a free phone number or you could use Google Voice).

Call to Record: Easy cell phone or landline recording

I have been playing with a website called Call to Record. It is similar to Google Voice or the old Drop.io. Call to Record allows 30 minute of free recording time from any cell phone or landline. It is completely private and you can download or share your audio recording at your discretion. Unlike Google Voice where you only get about 5 minutes of recording time, you can have up to 30 minutes. It is very simple to use, just dial a number. I only wish that once you deleted a recording, you could have those minutes back in your account (unfortunately it does not work that way, you have to create a new account). I do like the privacy and ease of use (as well as the landline option!).

Which is better Smartphone HTC ChaCha or Nokia E6

HTC ChaCha and Nokia E6 are the smartphones that are very close in their specification and features but different in brands. Both of them have similar look, similar QWERTY keyboard and screen sizes.

Pros Make it Look Easy

As I watched this video of Eric Clapton and John Mayer enjoying themselves in a little friendly dueling guitars session, I watched how easy they make it look to rip the guitar solos in the classic Cream song, Crossroads.

Roger Clemens Mistrial: Top Ten Tips for Vetting Your Trial Presentation Consultant

While I have yet to hear directly from someone who was present in the courtroom, I have heard quite a bit about what happened, and the result. Some have speculated that the DOJ did it intentionally, in an attempt to push the envelope of admissible evidence. Others say it was a mistake, and that the defense team “tricked” them into showing it by not objecting prior to trial, and then further by

With the recent trial of Casey Anthony coming to a surprising conclusion for many, the case has been compared to other high profile trials, including those of O.J. Simpson and Robert Blake.

Different charges certainly might have delivered a guilty verdict. I served on the defense team of Robert

Can you really use Twitter in your Classroom?

Twitter was one of those things that I just ignored. I thought it was a little bit indulgent and frivolous, that was until I got shown how teachers are using it for Professional Development.

The Stress of Trial

Funny, after many years of trial consulting, I've never bothered to consider what an incredibly intense level of stress we are expected to endure for weeks -- or even months at a time, when we are in trial.

iOS 5 - Features List Part 2: The Camera

  

Most people use their idevices in many different ways.

Apps for Getting Your Students Organised

We have all had students who struggle with the skills to organise themselves around homework and assignments. Sometimes they just do not have the tools to learn this skill.

Creating and Renaming Folders on Your iPad

I have been asked a couple a times in the last day or so how to create folders on the iPad. I know it sounds simple but people new to iOS devices are not always aware of these things.

It is sometimes more convenient to have all your related apps in one folder.Simply hold down the app, wait for it to wriggle and drag and drop it onto

Killer Presentation Tool for iPad

How to transfer files to and from an iPad

It’s true that you can use your iPad instead of your Mac to take care of many common computing tasks. But unless you’re ready to ditch Mac OS X entirely, you’ll still need to transfer files back and forth between your iPad and your Mac if you’re going to get work done.Unfortunately, transferring and synchronising files between the Mac and the tablet isn’t easy. There are several different ways to

Installation/Download trouble?

There are a couple issues that people run into very often on Android.  One of them is the fact that many devices have their download cache restricted, either because they came that way from the factory (such as most Samsung's) or the user has installed some kind of third party modification, such as CM7.  This can lead to downloads over a certain size failing for no apparent reason.  If you're

22 Basic but Useful iPad Tips

As many companies have discovered, you can't successfully slap a desktop operating system onto a tablet device.

Deponent: iPad App to Prepare and Take Depositions

When I first reviewed this app for Law Technology News, I pointed out what appeared to be one significant flaw - Deponent utilized the "Public" folder of Dropbox for its file system. The problem with this is that if you're concerned about data security in "the Cloud" (and if you're reading this blog, you probably should be), that is one of the weakest storage locations you could find, second

Can Your iPad Replace Your SmartBoard?

Often I have my opinion altered by the vigorous and spirited

Keyword Texting! New Free Web Resources for Teachers

Over the last few years my two favorite mass keyword texting apps have either shutdown (TXTblaster) or are no longer free (Textmarks). As a result I have been looking for new FREE resources that would allow people to "opt in" and subscribe to my mass text alerts (without me having to type in everyone's phone number). I have finally found two that I really LOVE. The first is called Cel.ly. The second is called Pulse.to. I will describe both below.

Cel.ly

Cel.ly is a new mass text messaging

service that says they are interested in schools using their free service! You can get started by texting "start" to 23559. Cel.ly will then ask you for a login and password. You can then go to the website Cel.ly, login and set up text message channels. Each channel is set up with a keyword so that students, teachers, community members, and parents can join your mass text message with a keyword from their cell phone! There does not seem to be a limit on the number of people that can join your mass alert. Cel.ly also gives you three choices in how you want to set up the mass text alerts. You can have all members send messages back and forth to the whole group. You can have only the teacher (owner of the channel) send messages to the group. You can have the group members send messages back to the teacher only! In addition your texting channel can be public or private! All messages are archived in Cel.ly! You can send messages via the Cel.ly website or via phone. It works quickly and easily!

Pulse.to is similar to Cel.ly. You can login to the website, create a free account and then you start to set up pulses. You can have a public or private mass texting channel (called "pulses"). In addition, you can select if only the pulse owner can send messages or if everyone in the group can send messages. Pulse.to works in many different countries besides the US and Canada! In addition there is not a short code to join, rather students/teachers/parents can text in to a real phone number (so phones that don't work with short codes or keywords will still work with this service!). For example to join my Pulse you text JOIN KOLBY to 704-323-7775.

iPad Accessories for Learning

Create Text Reminders for Courses with Remind101

I ran across a new site the other day called Remind101. This free site is created for teachers and students to seamlessly create text and/or email reminders for assignments, projects, quizzes, tests, labs, class activities and homework. Teachers create accounts, upload syllabi, insert all class projects, activities, homework and assignments. Then students can log in to Remind101, search for their class, subscribe to the class, and automatically start receiving all reminders for the class activities. Students can add new reminders, or personalize the text alerts to be for only certain types of activities. One of the best aspects of this site is that it is quick and easy to use. Instructors can also use the same class site over and over again, just changing the due dates. The site works with any cell phone that has SMS text messaging!
