21st century learning

Yesterday and today I have had the opportunity to learn ways to use video and qr codes in the classroom. I always have to keep in mind "WHY" I want to use these things.
First QR codes: These are amazing and fun to use. It gives a mystery to what they are and gives teachers an opportunity to let students explore their own ways of learning. A couple of sites we used for QR codes include. http://www.qrstuff.com/  and to make an entire collaborating type of quiz you could go to this site.

We also did some video creating and sharing using Windows Live Movie Maker. This was an awesome tool to use. I am not sure my 2nd graders could use this tool but I could use it to put together videos from the classroom.
Great learning experience!
