Josh Rocks Aurasma!

Tuesday 11/5

Josh W. Showed us how he is using his iPad to hover over an image of a math problem to trigger a tutorial/coaching video on how to do the math problem.

So- he had a math problem that he had to explain several times...so he created a homework support video the iPad app Explain Everything .

Then, he opened Aurasma and uploaded the video to his library. He hovered the camera over the image he wanted to trigger and positioned the Explain Everything video on that.

Once the user follows Josh's profile, any android or iPhone/iPad user can hover over the image, and in Harry Potter like fashion- the tutorial video appears. The user can tap on the video and it goes full screen where they can watch to it's completion. VERY COOL.

Make sure to ask Josh for a demo!

Air Server- send iPad image to your MAC

10/29

Jerry and Kate have been streaming an image from their iPad to their Mac's using Air Play

We think air server- $12 for education (7 day free)

Jerry is going to contact DTS (Erick Black & Michelle) who are currently doing pilot. Jerry did contact them and DTS says this probably won't happen any time soon.

Westview/Coal Ridge schools are also currently playing with this.

Can install one license on three machines, so Jerry is going to try it. They have 2 macs in the ART Dept. and are going to try it out for a bit.

It is pretty cool- you can use your iPad to stream directly to your Mac and move around the room. NICE!
