TILT- Teachers Improving Learning With Technology

I don't remember how I found the TILT TV blog, but I have to share this great resource! Danny Maas has created several screencasts related to educational technology. He has uploaded them to Google Video and provides them FREE for anyone to use! Here is his latest episode in which he demonstrates a simple, yet impressive project for beginning users of Excel in LESS THAN 9 MINUTES!

Earth and Moon Viewer

This is a fascinating site that enables you to view live pictures of the earth and moon through the use of satellite imagery. If I followed the directions on the site correctly, the image here should change throughout the day as the sun rises and sets.

There are lots of parameters to play around with. I just know it's a lot of fun! The site is provided by Fourmilab Switzerland and it is developed and maintained by John Walker, the founder of AutoDesk and co-author of AutoCad.

Orbit MP video from Google Video

It seems like my previous post with the demo video does not work with my Yahoo Briefcase. So I uploaded my Orbit MP video to Google Video. It was very easy to create a free account. Now that the video has been approved it is available on the Google Video website. They even generate the HTML code that allows me to embed the video here on my blog.

Rube Goldberg machine video-- WOW!
