Here is my Yodio report on the September 25, 2010 OTEN conference. I attended the keynote speech by Tim Lauer, principal of Meriwether Lewis Elementary School, Jeffrey Barlow's presentation on "Using Technology in Social Studies Classrooms," and Suzette Lewis' presentation on "World of Warcraft: Social constructivism in a virtual world and applications to the real world classroom." My Yodio is long, and explains them in great detail, so I won't say much more here.
Yodio was a frustrating program for me to use. It didn't tell me when to record the first time, so it started recording half way through my talk, and then it interrupted me in the middle of my second time through, so by the time it interrupted me at the end of my third recording, I jsut decided I'd said enough anyway, and put it up there. I have all these images I thought I could attach, but apparently you can only put one image per track, and there's no way I'm going to try and record this another time, so I just chose the picture of Jane McGonigal giving her TED speech, of which we watched a small segment in the World of Warcraft related presentation.
Interesting reflection on game based learning. Certainly opens of some doors when (and if) used appropriately --- which would take a lot of experimenting and thought. Sorry Yodio was not working as you wished.
