I administer a number of blogs. Usually, I use some plugins, but not for one side. So, I decided to delete all of the spam comments by using some SQL. It has never felt better.

Hier sind der Screencast eines Vortrags für ein Seminar an der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena sowie die Folien als PDF-Datei und ein Handout zum Thema "Creative Commons". ...continue reading →

Okay, some more cross promotion, as I was quite busy with the blog.deutsch20.de, which is in German, as mentioned earlier. Hence, there are no reblogs but links:

• Einen Beitrag schreiben - This post is supposed to help the students using the WordPress-based blog.
• Einen Screencast erstellen - Some information about screencasting and how it's done using PPT and Prezi. I also mention the browser-based service Screenr and some free tools (CamStudio, VLC and Quicktime). Furthermore, some information are provided about apps such as DoodleCast Pro and Explain Everything. So very lengthy.
• Screenshots machen - Here, I distribute a handout on how to make screenshots using Windows, Mac OSX and iOS. Android is also mentioned. Finally, some (free) software is linked: Greenshot and Evernote's Skitch.
• Creative Commons - Presentation about the licencing model.
• Was ist ein (gutes) Blog? - The definition of my "weapon of choice", when it comes to publishing. Some hints are provided about the characteristics of a "good" blog (post).
• Some links are also provided on 44 tools which can be used to publish (student) work (infographic), sources for free images and an interesting post about the World's languages.

In the last week, I've written a number of posts on deutsch20.de. As they are written in German, I won't reblog them here. However, here are the links for those, who understand German and are interested in the topic. Please also note the new role of "deutsch20.de", decribed in an earlier post.

• Flipped classroom - description of the concept
• Was ist ein Rubric? - Explanation of the function of rubrics
• Sichere Passwörter - Inforgrafik - A beautiful infographic (by another source) containing all relevant information
• Doodle - mehr als nur Termine - A post on the functionality of Doodle
• Padlet-Walls - Post about my most favourite toy (formerly "Wallwisher")

Heute hatte ich eine schöne Symmetrie bei der Zahl derjenigen, die mir folgen, und denen, denen ich folge.

Manchmal passt es halt.
