iPod Quiz

The folks at Respondus have added an interesting publishing feature to their test generation software. The software will now let you save the test for the iPod Quiz feature. If you already have your self-test questions loaded in Respondus, this will be a simple option to provide students. If you don't, it's 100% possible to download your questions from CE6 and then republish them for the iPod. Pretty nice. Can't say too many students will use it, but giving more options is certainly what counts.

50 Story Sites

From Alan Levin on CogDogRoo we can quickly explore and evaluate 50+ tools for presentation and story creation on the web. Plenty to look at here. Most interesting might be the Powerpoint conversion and sharing sites. I like the concept of timeline tools but I wasn't overly impressed with any of the embedded styles.

YouTube Lectures

UCBerkeley is using YouTube to host and deliver course lectures, visiting scholar events and marketing videos. Such a simple and useful vehicle.
