Thing 21
This was super easy and lots of fun. Students will have a blast using Animoto to create their videos. I think the remix is more fun than creating the original. Animoto could be used as a class project with each student adding his/her favorite picutes, as a class research project with each student finding specific historical images and learning how to create credits at the end to avoid copyright infringement or as individual projects following the same format. I think the class project would be interesting and the students would also learn to collaborate with each other.

thing 16
I chose the Earth-light theme for my iGoogle page and I will probably keep it for a while. I like the way it looks. I added a calendar viewer and a to do list gadget to my page. I embedded both gadgets on my blog. I created a to do list using TaDa and placed that link in my blog sidebar. All these things are very easy to do, just click and follow the instructions. Both the calendar and the to do list are things I will use at home and at school. If I don't write down what I need to do and when I need to do it, then I forget to do whatever it might have been. So both items will be very useful. I recommend both the calendar and the to do list to anyone who is as busy as we are. Organization is half the battle and these tools help organize your time and provide a visual aid so that you know exactly what to do and when to do it. I tried other applications but I chose Google because I use iGoogle as my homepage and it is more convenient for me. I don't think there is any kind of gadget a person could need that isn't provided by Google. I did discover that although you can embed Google's to do list on the blog page, it doesn't save your list. With TaDa you have to click the link, but the list is you shared is there when someone clicks the link.
