Workshop 2.

Name Planned activity Notes and/or Instructions
Carole McCulloch
Spotlight in the Elluminarium
Brief Description
This activity will showcase the use of application sharing in Elluminate and will provide opportunities for participants to be creative in a wetpaint wiki space.
During this activity participants will add a 'shout out' posting on a wiki page to put a spotlight on someone they believe is a great Elluminate moderator.
Step 1: set the scene
Create your wetpaint wiki page (or use mine at http://elluminatelivetraining.wetpaint.com/page/Moderator+Spotlight ) and add a discussion thread at the bottom of the page
In the page highlight your moderator of the month by providing a small image and some words about that moderator.
In the discussion forum start the thread with an introductory and instructional message about what to do.
Step 2: provide a demonstration in Elluminate
Provide a brief overview of what the activity is about: e.g. replying to a thread in a discussion forum on a wiki
Open the wetpaint wiki site in a separate browser window and login http://elluminatelivetraining.wetpaint.com
Start the application sharing and select the application for this website
Navigate to the Spotlight page and within the page to show the contents and demonstrate how to reply to the thread.
Step 3: get audience participation
Ask for a volunteer from the audience to add a posted reply
Hand them access to your shared application, keep the voice function on and give them directions
When finished take back the access to your shared application
(Time permitting: repeat the steps by asking for more volunteers.)
Marion Warm up activity. A simple activity that I need to learn how to set up. How do I make it a page for the Elluminate whiteboard? It is a word doc at present. Does it need to be a ppt slide? A activity while waiting for a session to begin. A table with zodiac symbols. Participants are to use the whiteboard tools to indicate what sign they are.
Libby icebreaker -world map of collaboration possibilities (insert/upload a jpeg of a world map) Using the whiteboard letter tool type a number (to correspond with hands up number) on the world map where you would be interested in finding a partner to collaborate with, on a global project with your students. Please raise your hand to share your reasons for your choice with the group via the microphone.
Anne Icebreaker - tell me about your day in three words. Use the writing tool to add your three words and colour in the text box with the approprate colour to how you are feeling.
Gail Icebreaker - Grid of Web 2.0 Tools to find out what participants already use (insert/Upload jpeg of the Web 2.0 Grid or a ppt slide) Use the Raise the Hand Tool and put hands up to get a number. Using the Whiteboard Letter Tool type your assigned number in all the Grid boxes to indicate the Web 2.0 Tools you use or have used and see if you can complete the whole board = BINGO! Using the Microphone and beginning with 'Winner' each person to explain briefly their most favourite tool and how you could use it in a classroom. Continue through all participants n a clockwise direction from the 'winner'!
Louise Icebreaker - gain an understanding of people's skills and knowledge etc Draw up a simple graph with the axis labelled according the to information you wish to ellicit. Students or participants, then plot themselves on the graph with a picture etc. It can be a great way to get the feel for the group, work out some experts etc, or simply as a reflection tool at the end to see how the session went Virtual_lessons_workshop2 - Elluminarium 4 Elluminate Live

Kelly Ice Breaker - Where are you??? Place a map on the screen. Particpants raise their hand to allocate them a number, then they type this number over the part of the map that they are logging in from. You could also do this with participants ideal holiday destination!
Kelly Mini workshop... Lesson Idea? This could be used in a LOTE lesson - if two classes joined up, or if communicating via correspondence. Work in progress! Powerpoint file too large to upload as yet...??
Jane Ice breaker - what's your fruity personality? A fun warm up activity and easy way to get to know participants - ask them to nominate which fruit/veg they most identify with. Results could be polled and then reveal the personality traits.
Jordan Chamerski Ice breaker and Activity - see Jordan's attachments below Ice breaker - turn your picture into something
Elluminate activity - Who Wants to be a millionaire
Luke Molan Ice breaker activity My initial thoughts are that as a moderator one of the most powerful things you can do is give each participant "a voice" - speech is the most engaging tool in elluminate so my activity is simply to facilitate the asking and answering of "Who are you?", "Where are you from?", What do you do?". As participants introduce themselves in answering these questions they are also invited to annotate the attached file on the WB with ther location. This last bit is similar to Kelly's Ice Breaker.
Belinda Flint Ice breaker activity Use the poll function to test your German knowledge!

In session 3 I want to demonstrate a digital learning object for participants. The object I have selected is one of the Lights, Camera, Action series. I am running a film project and want to do an online update session for teachers in this project after they have attended some f2f PD.I have attached the file below.

There is an upload limit of 2mb in any one page of the wetpaint wiki - a warning will be given if the file is too large.
PowerPoint slides are fine and probably better if they are saved as .ppt rather than .pptx.

As you begin to add your idea here you may want to explore them more deeply and ask relevant questions about how to make the best use of your ideas.
You may also want to give some feedback to their authors and to get some feedback on yours.
This is the place to do it.

Thanks Marion for your idea - you are first to upload your icebreaker idea and submit two attached files - congratulations. You will be our featured Moderator for now. Take a look at the Spotlight page.
