Online Drawing Tools

I have often used Glogster in class and love to use it as a form of a Digital Portfolio for students to reflect on their work.  After seeing the blog, Bits and Pieces Place, I saw how great it is as a source of links.  I wanted to create a list of links for online drawing tools, so I thought this could be a fun way to do it.

Crayon Physics Deluxe

http://www.crayonphysics.com/

I like to focus on digital tools and games which are free, however, this one I couldn't resist.

“Crayon Physics Deluxe is a 2D physics puzzle / sandbox game, in which you get to experience what it would be like if your drawings would be magically transformed into real physical objects. Solve puzzles with your artistic vision and creative use of physics.” http://www.crayonphysics.com/


The aim of the game is to create a path for the ball to move and roll over the star. There is a range of levels to work through.

This is a great game for problem solving, decision making and creativity. As the title suggests it can be used to understand different rules of physics such as the effects of gravity, size and weight. It is great for all ages.

This link shows videos of the game in use.

Reflection on Digital Pedagogy

After winning a 2009 Smartclassroom Teacher's Award, I was asked to share what I do in my teaching via a web conference.  This activity made me reflect on how I structure tasks in my classrooms and how I choose them.  I decided to create this slide.  I am in the process of altering and updating this slide as it is constantly changing as I learn and develop as a teacher.
