Hiatus

Hey everyone!

So I apologize for the hiatus on this here blogola but between 3 summer classes and working 2 new jobs I kinda got behind around here. Now that we have an apology out of the way, it's time for NEW technologies! I know. So eager, aren't you?

I took a class on Elizabethan and Shakespeare literature this summer. We read a fascinating article about the possibility of Shakespeare and Queen Elizabeth I meeting, and having a friendship of sorts. To coincide with our discussion on the article I made the video below using BLABBERIZE. Another site similiar to the one I used is called Fotobabble (it leans more toward a PhotoStory set up), but personally I thought Blabberize was a lot easier to use. If you haven't checked out this site, then you should. It's absolutely hysterical AND a great way to engage some of your less enthused students. I've thought about using Blabberize for character analysis as well.

Enjoy my video. And yes I did all of the voices myself.
