Creation
➔ Allows learners to relay their learning through their own creation process.
➔ Many tools for creating presentations, images or to represent learning◆ Skitch (part of Evernote)◆ PicsArt ◆ Google Presentation◆ Prezi ◆ List of presentation apps (Julie Davis)

Consumption
➔ Learners can use specific apps to learn new material
➔ Learning occurs any time, any place➔ Allows for practice and review➔ Teachers can provide ‘playlists’ of
materials targeted to learning
PennyThis is a wide open “C” -- we can show our own apps, refer to TedED for lessons learners can do on their devices, HippoDeedCampus (playlists) YouTube (playlists)
Curation
➔ helping learners sort through and organize information
➔ skills necessary to retrieve that information
➔ expectations for research (Google search? Google Scholar? Wikipedia? Other databases?)
Pennycritical thinking; checking sources; good vs bad -- how do they know? How do you teach them?
Journal of Interactive Media in EducationExploring Curation as a Core Competency in Digital and Media Literacy Educationhttp://jime.open.ac.uk/article/view/2013-02/472 Paul MihailidisDepartment of Marketing Communication, Emerson College, United States [email protected] N Cohen

Defining curation:Content curation is the process of collecting, organizing and displaying information relevant to a particular topic or area of interest. Services or people that implement content curation are called curators. Curation services can be used by businesses
as well as end users.
Connection
➔ Texting for communicating information➔ Social media for interaction➔ Google voice for communication
PennyKeeping these ideas in mind can help you determine best uses for mobile applications for your learners.Question: What technology tools do you use now; and how do they align with this list of the Four C’s?
Lets look at specific applications that align to the four C’s --

App Smashing
“The process of using multiple apps in conjunction with one another to complete a final task or project. For example, take a photo of student work.”Greg Kulowiec
Blair
It is all about camera roll and publishing!
App Smashing by Greg Kulowiec
Philosophy - use a combination of apps to create a projectmultimedia book, movies, common craft-like videos,
“The key to is the camera roll – use apps that can save to camera roll or take screen captures and bring them in. What’s important is that content be created, but it doesn’t have to be digital. Imagine a student who creates in the real world, takes a picture or video, brings it into a product, and publishes to the web. The idea is creation and publishing without limits.” by Greg Kulowiec

Google Voice Project by Palo Alto teachers
Mary Bazios & Nilou Shokrani
•Used Google Voice to Evaluate Outside Oral Assessment•Conversation practice in classroom•Introduction letter on school letterhead•Student calls teacher’s Google Voice number•Student asks community member a question -
• Where is Costco?•Native speaker answers question while being recorded•Student must repeat answer•Teacher receives recorded conversation in their Google Voice
account•Teacher has rubric to assess student’s interactions
BlairRead article in OTAN NewsletterListening Assessment through Google VoiceMary Bizigos and Nilou Shokrani, ESL teachers from Palo Alto Adult School - pilot program they created at their school. They named their presentation “Using Google Voice to Evaluate Outside Oral Assessment Activities.” Working with their administrator, Bizigos and Shokrani provided their students a unique opportunity to demonstrate their ability to converse with community members while using Google Voice to record the conversation. 1. Students practiced conversations in the classroom to prepare for the activity. 2. When ready, they ventured out into the community. Each student presented an introductory letter to a member of the community and with approval, began the activity. 3. Using the student’s cell phone, the student called the teacher’s Google Voice number. Once the call was established and the message recorder was activated, the student began the interview. 4. Students were required to ask for information and then repeat that information back to the community member. 5. The interaction was recorded to the teacher’s Google Voice account. 6. Bizigos and Shokrani used a rubric to grade the student’s performance as they listened to the recording. This project demonstrates how the use of technology, along with creative thinking and
thorough planning, can enhance the learning experience and provide unique learning opportunities to our students.
Connection: Translation Technologies
Google Translate: Allows a user to type text or URL into translation box and have information translated into one of 90 different languages. (https://translate.google.com)
Microsoft Skype Translator: Provides translations as people speak to one another over Skype.(http://www.skype.com/en/translator-preview)
Joyce
WIOA allows new uses of technology, including the development or expansion of technology applications and digital literacy models. New focus - translation technology. Has potential to make the understanding of non-native languages much easier for learners.
Google Translate app (Google Play store) also allows translations using voice, keyboard, or handwriting.
