Coursera

I have posted about MOOCS several times in the past. You can just type in MOOCS in the search box in the top left to see the previous postings.  Coursera has just added 13 new institutues to their family.  The new institutes are: Copenhagen Business School (CBS), Eindhoven University of Technology, Koç University, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), IESE Business School, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT), National Geographic Society, National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE), Saint Petersburg State University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Università Bocconi, University of Lausanne, and University of Manchester.  In honour of this Coursera put out the following infographic.  If you would like to go to their site and see their free courses click here.

Horror Writers of America Scholarship

Keeping in line with Halloween.
Horror Writers Association Blog

How does $2500 sound to you.  Do you write?  There are two scholarships available.  One is for female writers only and the other is open to anyone. You must be a member of H.W.A. but if you are a good writer and like horror then maybe you should be a member anyways.  Click here for details.scholarships214x164

ThingLink

This is a free app that allows you to make pictures interactive.  You place a pinmark on your picture and then you can make that pinmark pop with text,  videos, links etc when someone touches them.   Students have added multimedia labels to cells or geographic features.  Teachers could make their rubrics pop by putting links to examples or video tutorials.  You can see the app by clicking here.'

A Creative Commons slide show by Donna Baumbach entitled "66+ interesting ways to use ThingLink in the Classroom" can be found by clicking here.

ThingLink had their student contest and posted all the entries.  Click here to see all the entries.  You may want to look at some of these for ideas.  For example their was one on frog dissection, click here or famous composers, click here.
