Recommendation for the OER MOOC

Recommendation for the #OERMOOC

1
. Learning tool I like most and I'm using after enrolling in this course.

Blogs and microblogs: Blogging is the best wy to express the students work and I'm still working on it. Its a super educational tool, in both classroom and online settings. Blogs provide opportunities for people to express their own ideas and we can get a feedback on our posts.

Learner blogs can be hosted on Blogger, www.blogger.com or WordPress, www.wordpress.com.

Microblogging sites, like Twitter www.twitter.com,  Linkedin, www.linkedin.com
It can be helpful for discussion or get a feedback on your tweet or post. Blogging is a powerful learning tool for students.

Virtual meetings. MOOCs are designed for asynchronous learning, virtual meetings allow for synchronous collaboration. For example, virtual meetings on Skype www.skype.com or Google+Hangouts < http://www.google.com/+/learnmore/hangouts/ > to discuss the contentor product.

2. Educational games


Ambient Insight’s new research exposed that mobile technology is the key driver energizing the global edugame market. The foremost countries for mobile edugames in 2012 were the US, Japan, South Korea, China, and India, respectively. By 2017, the top foremost purchasing countries will be China, the US, India, Indonesia, and Brazil.

“One major catalyst accelerating the market is the growing number of direct billing agreements between the telecoms and the app stores,” adds Adkins.

“Samsung, Nokia, Microsoft, BlackBerry, and Google have direct billing agreements with carriers allowing customers to buy apps and get charged on their phone bill. This has caused a spike in Mobile Learning revenues in countries where credit card usage is uncommon.”

1. Educational puzzles numbers: Puzzles & memory games are considering best for brainstorming. You can boost your child by these activities so I opt for such educational games that is helpful for a good puzzle game for kids education. Educational puzzles-Numbers is a new free app including fun logic puzzles for preschool kids that will entertain your children and introduce them to the world of numbers.

5. Animations

The animated video is based on a story. The video based lesson is much effective rather than simple lesson plan. The students will learn alot from the visual aid so if Ilan a lesson based on animated video then I would like to prefer some story that have some moral aswell.
