Wiki 2.0: http://web20wikisection3.pbworks.com/w/page/50657087/Audioboo
Audioboo is a free web 2.0 tool that allows your to record and upload very easily from a smartphone or computer. This tool can be very useful in a classroom. Especially because it is so easy to use that even the children could create an account too! Nothing really went wrong for me or my partner during this process. We both learned how to use Audioboo quickly and there was a video tutorial to watch that explained everything as well on the websites home page.
I can definitely see how Audioboo is a valuable tool. I dont know how much I could incorporate it into my art classroom, but here are some ways I considered: uploading any homework assignments I might give them, so they can access that if they forget what to do. Also making a boo of are terms that they can review to help their "artist minds" grow and learn more even outside of school! I could also let the students leave feedback for me about how they liked the project and what they learned from it as extra credit. Art is a very hands on subject to teach so using Audioboo would be more for reminders rather than something the students would be uploading.
I am excited to learn about all the other Web 2.0 tools and see if there are other ones that will be helpful when I become an art teacher! And I am looking forward to sharing Audioboo with the class because I think that they will find it very helpful!
