  • Type of Learning (Bloom’s Taxonomy): With the student as a listener to podcasts: "Understand, analyze, evaluate"; With the student as a podcaster: "Create, Apply"
  • Type of Learning experience (Dale’s Cone of Experience): "radio, recordings, still pictures" if a student is just listening; with the student as podcaster, it  could be anywhere between "direct purposeful experience" through "demonstrations."
  • Integration of tool for teaching and learning:
  • Podomatic makes it easy for instructors and students to produce podcasts.  Instructors can created podcasts of lectures or review materials for students to listen to outside of class or before tests.  Podcasts have a low barrier for entry in that they use open source software and there is much free instructional content on how to do it.  So, students can also get involved in creating podcasts as individuals or in groups  Podomatic offers shared projects so that multiple students can participate in the process.  They may assume different roles from producer to editor to interviewer or host.   Students may rotate through roles in a given project.  Creating conversations gives students a way to develop their voices as writers and also opens up an education in research skills and interviewing skills to bring the podcast together.

  Gliffy https://www.gliffy.com/ Type of Learning (Bloom’s Taxonomy): Gliffy could run the gamut of Bloom's Taxonomy depending on how it was utilized:  students could be given a completed organizer to help them "remember" content that was already presented in a different manner, they could "create" their own organizer and use it to "evaluate" a concept, "analyze" the elements of a concept by comparing and contrasting them, "apply" skills in doing the above activities, and show that they "understand" the concepts address by working out their own way of organizing items.  Type of Learning experience (Dale’s Cone of Experience): Students could experience a prepared graphical organizer at the point of "exhibits" or "demonstrations," but in having students build their own graphical organizers there is potential for "dramatic participation" and "contrived experiences" along with "dire...

  Flip (formerly Flipgrid) https://info.flip.com/ Type of Learning (Bloom's Taxonomy): Could work with any level of the taxonomy, depending on what they student is asked to record in their video:  could be anything from recounting what they remember about a topic, to demonstrating their understanding in a presentation, to applying content and demonstrating that in a video, analyzing  situation in a video, evaluating a situation, or even creating a video to demonstrate their understanding of a topic/concept. Type of Learning Experience (Dale’s Cone of Experience): Seems to fit somewhere in the middle of the Cone (Exhibits, Field Trips, Demonstrations) if students are watching the work of other students showing their work or watching the instructor demonstrate actions or visit places.  But, can involve the student who is recording a video in options further down the Cone (Dramatic Participation, Contrived Experiences, Direct Purposeful Experiences) if student is asked ...

  Lucidchart https://www.lucidchart.com/pages/ Type of Learning (Bloom’s Taxonomy): "Create, Evaluate, Analyze, Apply" (depending on task assigned to the student) Type of Learning experience (Dale’s Cone of Experience): "Demonstrations" through "Direct, Purposeful experiences" (depending on task assigned) Integration of Tool for Teaching and Learning: Lucidchart has many uses.  It is a tool for creating online diagrams, and has a large library of symbols and templates to help with this.  It can also be used as a mind mapping tool for brainstorming, or to create Venn diagrams, flowcharts, and timelines.  Instructors may use it to visually depict class content in terms of processes or relationships among elements and concepts and share them with students either inside of Lucidchart or embedded in other documents and tools (Google Docs, for example).  If kept inside Lucidchart, an online diagram can be contributed to by an entire class or a group of students....
