N3 ICT symposium 2015

I shared the use of Kahoot @ N3 ICT symposium 1 July 2015:

Kahoot presentation from Lily Lee

Just learned that Kahoot introduced the Ghost mode. Please see my earlier post which I have updated - http://ezitnew.blogspot.sg/2015/01/kahoot-online-quiz.html Great that we can now get the students to do the quiz again. 

I have some of the kahoot in Ghost mode on the links below.

I have also attended the sharing by my colleague, Mr Shaw Wee.  He has presented on the use of Video Physics app Vernier - available on IOS (Apple) to understand the relationship between velocity and acceleration.

1. capture a video of objects thrown vertically and also capturing horizontal movement
2. track the movement
3. analyse the data

A similar one on android will be Physics Gizmo - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brokenairplane.physicsGizmo&hl=en  free

An interesting app shared during the ICT symposium - Aurasma
It can be downloaded from App Store for IOS and Play store for Androids (however my Samsung Note 4 is not compatible and cannot download it. It works on my Samsung Galaxy Pro)
The app offers a lot of potential in creating virtual learning.

Aurasma allows users to create or view augmented reality experiences. The user open up the app and capture the photo with the camera. The image will transform into a video, animation, another image or bring you to a website with more information. 

To create their own Auras, students or teachers choose an overlay and a trigger. An overlay is a video, image, an animation or a website link that will appear when someone finds the trigger object or photo.
