World Backup Day - make sure your data and files are backed up!

<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="CopyBackupFiles Want to backup files? Here are 8 free web applications that can help you" height="150" src="http://blog.toggle.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/CopyBackupFiles.jpg" width="200" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Tomorrow is <b>World Backup Day!</b><br /><br />Everyone needs to have their files backed up. It is very easy to have your flash drive, hard drive, or computer crash, get damaged, or have your flash drive or laptop get lost or stolen. And it always happens at the worst possible time.<br /><br />There are many different ways to backup your files. You can use an external hard drive, backup to a flash drive, or backup your files to the cloud. I use a mixture of both.<br /><br /><b>1. External Hard Drive </b>- an external hard drive is a great way to back up your files locally. This proves very useful if your computer goes down and you have no internet. Many of them come with software build in to set up automatic backups and Windows and Mac have automatic backup apps. You can even make an image of your hard drive so that you don't have to reinstall software if you need to start from scratch.<br /><br /><b>2. Flash Drive</b> - a flash drive can also be used for backup, but they are more expensive than hard drives for similar storage capacities. I do use a flash drive as a backup at school of my main files.<br /><br /><b>3. Cloud based backup</b> - this is my favorite way to backup my files because it is automatic, free, and I can sync my files to multiple computers which means I have access to them locally. They also allow me to access my files from any computer, or even smartphone, via the web (and smartphone apps).There are many different ones available. They all have some sort of free plan and many allow you to get extra free memory through referrals. Here are a few of my favorites:<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-TlzPD7E3DOPE3iLrJ2EjNVYMXg72Vtr8q5Avge-6SbgpgG6-F4ZqQnDTynrrBmoZY3CEfnxE_5kxq7RuOzxcN6jacYfSxXwLWZwe_SwDFFVeO6RmYUKpNTSk_bODE019kLGakdPFJZ8/s1600/dropbox.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478522475537371410" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-TlzPD7E3DOPE3iLrJ2EjNVYMXg72Vtr8q5Avge-6SbgpgG6-F4ZqQnDTynrrBmoZY3CEfnxE_5kxq7RuOzxcN6jacYfSxXwLWZwe_SwDFFVeO6RmYUKpNTSk_bODE019kLGakdPFJZ8/s400/dropbox.png" style="display: block; height: 125px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left; width: 376px;" /></a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTU5Mjc0NTI5"><b>Dropbox</b></a> is a service that allows you to sync your files on your computer with their system as a backup. This also allows you to access the files anywhere. You can also sync the files across multiple computers. This means that you have automatic backup of your files and 24/7 access to your files. I have it set up to sync a folder on my home computer, wife's computer and school computer so I don't have to worry about having multiple versions or forgetting a flash drive.</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">There are also <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTU5Mjc0NTI5">Dropbox</a> apps for iPhone, <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/10/android-smartphone-and-apps-i-use-as.html">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="http://www.precentral.net/dropboxify">webOS</a> and Blackberry.

You can have it back up your files on their server, and sync the files among multiple computers. So, my files on my home computer are synced to my laptop and my school computer. You can also access these files through any web browser, and there are apps for smart phones. You can even access them with a mobile web browser if you don't have an app. You get 5GB for free and there are fee based plans with more storage. I can access my files anywhere, on any device, which makes it very convenient. You select the directories that you want to be backed up. The "Magic Briefcase" is the directory or folder you pick to be automatically backed up and synced. As soon as I save a file to that directory, it is uploaded to their servers.</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The Websync feature is also nice. If you are accessing your files through the website, you can select "Edit with websync" and a Java program will download a temp copy of your file, allow you to edit and save it and then upload the new version. You can also share files with others through email or the web.</div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="https://www.sugarsync.com/referral?rf=fn89bm5zdg2cg">Sugarsync</a> came in very handy for my wife. 1 week after setting it up on her computer, her hard drive died.

Hojoki - make all your cloud apps work together - very cool & free

<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Hojoki Logo" height="53" id="logo" src="http://hojoki.com/img/hojoki_logo_website.png" title="Hojoki" /></div><br /><a href="http://hojoki.com/">Hojoki</a> is a new service I just learned about from the Hojoki team. It's a very cool idea - it takes all of your online productivity apps and turns them into a newsfeed and collaborative space to work on projects. <br /><br />I played with it a little today and will be using it more this week. It looks like something that could be very useful for education. <br /><br />It' is in Beta now and free and there will always be a free plan available. <br /><br />Here's more information and a video about it:<br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5sFWucpqRY4" width="520"></iframe><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /><br /><b>Teachers utilizing the cloud: <a href="http://hojoki.com/">Hojoki</a> is your collaborative newsfeed for <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Docs</a>, <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/04/google-calendar-get-organized-for-free.html">Calendar</a>, <a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a>, <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a> and more</b><br /><div><b><br /></b><a href="http://hojoki.com/">Hojoki’s</a> basic idea is very simple: they offer one newsfeed for productivity apps. It connects to apps like <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Documents</a>, <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a>, <a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a>, Mendeley and Google Calendar, building you a newsfeed and a collaborative space for your work.<br /><br />Anytime an activity in any of your connected apps occurs, Hojoki informs you. You can share your activities with others in workspaces, where you can discuss events and manage whatever projects you’re working on. You never miss important changes from co-workers and have all your content in one place.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://hojoki.com/static/img/teaching_in_the_cloud.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><b>Why this is so interesting for Teachers?</b><br />Some of the tools Hojoki integrates are very powerful and established tools for education:<br /><br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Documents</a> for classroom collaboration<br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/04/google-calendar-get-organized-for-free.html">Google Calendar</a> to share calendars with colleagues and classes<br /><a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a> for sharing and syncing files<br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a> with lot’s of uses prior, during and after class<br />If you and your colleagues use more than one of those tools, you know the problem. It’s almost impossible to manage communication and collaboration across all the apps efficiently. So both teachers and students spend a lot of time logging into lots of tools, checking for updates and informing each other on changes and updates.<br /><br />Hojoki solves that fragmentation problem as it brings all the tools and all people involved in one browser tab and allows the creation of workspaces for collaboration. <br /><br /><br /><b>How to use Hojoki in Education</b></div><div>Hojoki brings teachers and students and, most importantly, their tools together on one page. Here are three suggestions from the Hojoki team for educational use: <br /><br />Creating and sharing teaching materials    <br />When creating and sharing teaching materials, teachers often use <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Doc</a>s, <a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a> and <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a>. As long as everyone is using the same app, everything is fine. But as soon as content spreads across apps, things become confusing. Everyone needs to log in, check frequently for changes and give feedback on other channels, like email. With Hojoki, you can connect all relevant content from lots of apps to a workspace to get instantly notified if someone updated or added something. Besides that, you get a full searchable history of changes in your teaching materials. Here’s an infographic that shows a typical workflow in Hojoki: <a href="http://blog.hojoki.com/post/20002424193/teaching-in-the-cloud-infographic">http://blog.hojoki.com/post/20002424193/teaching-in-the-cloud-infographic</a><br /><br /><br />Online Classrooms <br />If you share and update content from <a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a>, <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a> and <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Docs</a> on a regular basis for a class, create a workspace with your students in Hojoki and add the relevant content. By doing this, Hojoki shows every activity as a newsfeed - who updated a document in <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/google-for-educators_22.html">Google Docs</a>, created a note in <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/evernote-for-education.html">Evernote</a> or uploaded a file to <a href="http://db.tt/LqPWxU6">Dropbox</a>. Hojoki connects even to <a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/04/google-calendar-get-organized-for-free.html">Google Calendar</a> to view class events. Everyone in the classroom workspace can comment immediately and discuss issues. Hojoki saves time by making it easy and keeps everything in one place, so over time you get a fully searchable knowledge base on top of your tools.<br /><br />Supervision<br />Workspaces also work great to provide supervision on writing and student projects which utilize more than one cloud app. Teachers can keep informed on the progress of either one student or a group of students. Students get instant feedback and guidance from their teachers and that extra boost in motivation. ;)<br /><br /><br /><br />Hojoki <a href="http://www.hojoki.com/">www.hojoki.com</a> is free, so give it a try!  <a href="http://hojoki.com/">http://hojoki.com/</a>  </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>

Guest Post - Using Pinterest in the Classroom

<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img height="80" src="https://encrypted-tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQKhILj2lcmbLzShjJK-wyuad468M3_V5DqG9l3oyeqnXt3FQxb" width="320" /> </div><br /><i>This Guest Post is by Samantha Peters, who runs <a href="http://theeducationupdate.com/">theeducationupdate.com</a> and enjoys writing about new ways for teachers can use Pinterest and other social media platforms to enhance learning in the classroom. </i><br /><br /><a href="about:blank"><b>Pinterest</b></a> is the newest member to arrive on to the social media scene, and it has taken social media users by storm – quickly becoming one of the most popular social media platforms today. However, this site is not solely to be seen by educators as yet another classroom distraction. Pinterest can actually be highly beneficial for a number of reasons:<div><br /></div><div><img height="288" src="http://slav.global2.vic.edu.au/files/2012/02/pinterest1-2h71nfm.jpg" width="400" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><b>Lesson Supplements</b><br />Students <a href="about:blank">learn in a wide variety of ways</a>, and many learn best when the lesson is interactive. When covering certain topics, whether it be World History or Trigonometry, use Pinterest to post lesson supplements. If you find articles, stories, or YouTube videos that will help students further grasp lessons, Pin them to that lesson's Board so that they have access to tools that will help them supplement their education.<br /></div><div><b>Current Events</b><br />Several large news and information sites, including the Wall Street Journal and National Geographic, are members of Pinterest, and have active boards. Simply by choosing to follow them, you can keep your class easily up to date on the most recent breaking stories and finds. These stories can then be used to prompt further classroom discussions or debates, and even lead in to larger projects.<br />If you are teaching higher level courses, such as those for college students, you can post Pins and have students comment below to create an online discussion board.<br /></div><div><b>Project Ideas</b><br />If your students are struggling with project ideas, Pinterest is a great place to go. Create a board on Pinterest exclusively for classroom projects with several Pins of different project ideas. Your students will be able to actually see previous projects, and get a better understanding of what you are looking for and what they can do to create a successful project.<br /></div><div><b>Accountability</b><br />If you are wondering whether or not students are staying on top of their individual or group projects, don't ask for the generic written report. Instead, have each group create a Pinterest account and then post research that they have found, as well as any pictures and project ideas, to their Boards so that you can actually watch their progress, offer criticism when necessary, and make sure that they are using credible sources.<br /></div><div>The aforementioned are just a few of the numerous ways an educator, whether they teach 8th grade at a Los Angeles junior high or 19th Century History at a <a href="http://www.cbt.edu/">Miami community college</a>, can use Pinterest to further engage their students in the classroom. The highly iconic nature of the site sets it aside from other social media platforms, and makes it a pleasure for students to use. So if you are looking for another way to refocus your students, consider bringing Pinterest into the classroom. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Related:</b></div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/p/project-based-learning.html">Project Based Learning Resources for Educators </a></div><div><br /></div><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2012/02/social-media-in-education-connect-share.html">Social Media in Education - connect, share, learn, communicate and more</a><br /><br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/03/popplet-online-presentation-mindmapping.html">Popplet - online presentation, mindmapping, and bulletin board</a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/12/mindmeister-online-mind-mapping-and.html">MindMeister - online mind mapping and brain storming</a><br /><br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/03/spicynodes-visualize-and-organize.html">Spicynodes - visualize and organize information and resources</a><br /><br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/09/bubblus-online-brainstorming-for-free.html">Bubbl.us - online brainstorming for free</a><br /><br /><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2011/03/thoughtboxes-organize-everything-you-do.html">Thoughtboxes - organize everything you do - great resource for education</a><br /></div><div><a href="http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2012/03/mindomo-brainstorming-and-mindmapping.html">Mindomo - brainstorming and mindmapping software</a> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>

The site has interactive simulations for physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, and math that teachers and students can use.<br /><br />The simulations can be run on the site or downloaded. The simulations are accurate and real and can help students learn concepts in more depth. They are easy and fun to use, and really do demonstrate the concepts well. In the physics ones I use, a big benefit is that students can quickly and easily change variables and conditions and then see what happens. This is very hard and time consuming in many hands on labs. Students can also visualize things that are hard to see in a hands-on lab, such as magnetic field lines, and electron flow.<br /><br />The simulations are also a great alternative to live labs if you don't have the resources available. Some of the simulations are better than any hands on lab because the students can truly see and understand what is happening.<br /><br />You can search by topic, grade level, or just see the newest ones added. There are teacher resources for many of the simulations. Teachers who use the simulations post lesson plans and resources to the site for others to use also. These teacher created lesson plans and lab sheets are excellent and free for all to use.<br /><br />I use the Physics simulations in my classroom and they work great. This is one of those sites that every science and math teacher needs to check out.<br /><br />Here's a list of some of the new simulations they have and there are more simulations, and resources, being added all the time.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht-zjeyhp60JjzN59nE5BdzbXolpudjs5CismzYtcPI44dAEDZfytAP8YrEsFyzHCemV-u_4_6C4LDSbOn8v4I2mOtaGu7KM-FBINfkiVNwCpnSxc4Xu6FjMfAXim91dMAkAMAaVdc8Y0/s1600/PhET+new+sims.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht-zjeyhp60JjzN59nE5BdzbXolpudjs5CismzYtcPI44dAEDZfytAP8YrEsFyzHCemV-u_4_6C4LDSbOn8v4I2mOtaGu7KM-FBINfkiVNwCpnSxc4Xu6FjMfAXim91dMAkAMAaVdc8Y0/s400/PhET+new+sims.jpg" width="268" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></div></div>

As you can see from the home page shot above, the categories are wide ranging and include Biology, Chemistry, and even some math. I have used many of them and found them to be very good and nicely designed animations that explain topics well. Some of the topics are pretty advanced and may only be relevant to AP or college courses.<br /><br />This can be used by the teacher in the classroom or students can be directed here on their own as a study resource.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
