Instructional Tech Talk Podcast – Live from the ICE Conference – March 5, 2013

Google Docs for Conferences

Jon Samuelson (@iPadSammy) showed me this great idea at ICE this past week that involved tweeting out a shared Drive doc and encouraging others to add their session notes to that doc. Cool!

iRig Mic

The entire show (minus Jeff's interview at the end) were conducted with the iRig mic recording directly into the iPad – awesome option for the classroom! Click here to learn more and read my full review of the recording system.
