Slide Converters???

We have a science teacher with a lot of 35mm slides. He would like to transfer them to a digital picture/file so that kids would be able to use them in projects. Does anyone know of a cost efficient way to do that?

Storing podcasts

I created a podcast of a review session that I had with students. I would like to make it and others available for my students to download when/if they miss a class before a test. Any suggestions about how to go about this. My mac stuff says to upload to a .mac account. I don't have one at this time.

Any ideas?

Here is a fabulous example of a teacher and students using a wiki for student work it is by Kendra Farrell and her students. She had posted the URL as part of a discussion on Art Education 2.0 in the Digital Imaging group.

If you use wiki spaces for your class you do not have to have emails. You can email the usernames and passwords for all of your students and they will create bulk accounts for everyone you want to have access to the wiki!
As a K-12 educator you can also ask to have an educators account that does not have advertising.
I have used wikispaces for art history, ceramics history and for personal pages.

Welcome to the Nebraska Educators Ning. I hope we continue to grow as teachers begin to look for ways to reach out to their colleagues.
