Make a "Pencast" of your work...

You may have heard of the Livescribe Echo Smartpen, but did you know you can also upload your work to the internet, as a "Pencast?"

People can see you writing, hear you talking--and the page is navigable--people can click to jump to different parts of your writing, and the audio is synchronized automatically!

What a great way to walk students through an alegebra problem, a scientific diagram, the Spanish subjunctive verb chart...

Want to try a Livescribe pen?
The Office of Innovations in Teaching and Learning has a few for short-term lending.

They are approximately $169, require special paper (you can print your own) and are simply amazing.
