These tags usually get me exactly what I'm looking for very quickly. I find new and creative ideas for enhancing what I do in the classroom and at camp. Am happy to provide my favorite links w/in the tags.
I'd love to see your Interactive Hebrew links...can you post?
ReplyDeleteI discovered that about half of the sites I tagged had not been tagged before. Tagging may be the wave of the future, but there's a lot of work to go before the world is properly tagged. I think I'm gonna stick with Google. :-)
ReplyDeleteI am curious why Jewish Camping is not among your top ten. Also I would love to know more about the uses for technology in camping settings.
ReplyDeleteAt the Day School Conference the Oranim group was advertising a technology camp in Israel. They showed a cool memory stick bracelet that kids use to save their work.
While Jewish overnight camping has played an enormous role in the lives of my daughters and myself, one of the ramifications about such a lifestyle is unplugging from a lot of what we experience back in the city. My cellphone has no bells or whistles, no Internet data plan.
ReplyDeleteTechnology is not available to campers. They may bring their cellphones for trips out of camp. Only recently is there cellphone access w/in the boundaries of camp.
The e-camp in Israel is probably the exact opposite of the experience I have in my camp. On occasion there is a presentation at camp involving projected images. Computers for e-mail checking are available for staff but access is painfully slow. Once or twice, we hooked up the telephone in the dining hall to be able to speak w/our alumni in Israel.
Jewish camping is an excellent tag. To me, it is a very broad topic and in pursuit of ideas or for research, I usually go to more specific topics as they relate to informal education.
