I would like to give a Shout-Out to MLTI's MLTI Minute. I'm not sure if any of you are aware of this. MLTI posts, regularly, easy to swallow, roughly one (1) minute videos featureing several important tid-bits and gold nuggets of information about making the most of your MLTI Macbook laptop. From keystroke shortcuts to explanations of all of the programs on your device. You can access these right from MLTI's website. Each video can be downloaded from the site.In my travels I find several faculty that love to use Stickies on their Macbook device. I want to feature a great little bundle of videos for those who love to use their Stickies and want to learn how to make them work for you more.Here are the links below to five, 1-min, videos that reveal some important features of Stickies You can also subcribe to MLTI Minute podcasts through iTunesU in your iTunes application; every MLTI posts a new video podcast your iTunes library will automatically retrieve it.
I will post something later explaining the great resource of iTunesU later.
Readability.com is a powerful tool that pulls online news articles and cleans them up. In other words, gets rid of any other content on that web page - i.e. advertisements, other headlines, comment posts, or links - and displays a "clean" article with any images that pertain to it. Readability.com, also, allows you to print, share on social networks, and customize appearance. You, now, have the ability to save your chosen articles as PDF, add annotations for your students; or have your students add annotations. The document below covers more detail.
This Add-on tool will be embedded right into your Firefox browser for easy use. No Admin needed.
The document is very easy to read and user-friendly. I have the web link in the document, however simply go to readability.com
