  • 8 Months of Android: Lessons Learned (Part 2)

    In November 2017, I shocked my family and many friends by switching from an iPhone to an Android smartphone. It’s been a good experiment, but I’ve been missing iOS and an iPhone for multiple reasons. Later today I’m throwing in the towel and purchasing a used iPhone 6+ for $120 from a relative. If it…

  • Upload Videos Using the iPhone YouTube App

    More teachers today are creating videos and sharing them with students for assignments and to teach different concepts.

  • Archived Learning from the 2015 Mobile Learning Experience

    I have opportunities to attend and participate in many educational conferences each year, and it’s always interesting to compare the scheduling, session mix, atmosphere, and overall experience of these events. Last week was my third time to attend the “Mobile Learning Experience,” organized by the Arizona K-12 Center (@azk12) and Tony Vincent (@tonyvincent,) and this year was the…

  • Set Your Default YouTube Upload Channel

    For over a year now, YouTube has permitted users to create multiple channels with a single Google account. In the past, to manage more than one YouTube channel, users had to create separate Google accounts. Now YouTube channels can even be shared with other Google account users, similar to the way Google Docs are shared. The screenshot…

  • Download & Use Vine Videos in iPad Media Projects

    Last October I was very inspired by Ben Wilkoff‘s keynote presentation “6 Second Stories for Learning” in the free, K-12 Online Conference. If you haven’t seen it yet, set aside 16 minutes of your day and watch it. In the first half, Ben utilizes a long series of 103 different, six second videos which he recorded…

  • iPad App Clean Install (December 2014)

    Thanks to some professional development work I’m starting with a new grant project, I was able to setup a new iPad Air 2 this weekend with all the apps I use for personal productivity, content creation and sharing. As is the case with a laptop, it’s often beneficial to do a “clean install” of applications rather…

  • Great Mobile Device Battery Chargers

    Last Thursday and Friday my wife and I attended Miami Device, and not surprisingly, we brought a large number of “digital devices” with us to the conference. Shelly brought a Chromebook, iPad and iPhone, while I brought a MacBook Air, iPad, iPhone, and Nexus tablet. If you’ve traveled with members of your family recently, I’m guessing…
