Hello Fellow Bloggers,
Ed heads is a flash interactive / simulation site with a motto of "Activate your mind" (Ed Heads, 2009.) The interactive activities that are available from this site can be great resources that teachers can use within the classroom on an interactive whiteboard or simply in the computer room where each student is able to access the activities themselves (Ed Heads, 2009.)
Edheads assit students to learn via educational games and activities designed to meet state and national standards. The activities use a number of techniques that help to cater for most learning styles, for example: visual, audio and kinaesthetic (Ed Heads, 2009.)
So dive into an activity to let the fun and learning begin! Ed Heads

Hello Julie!
ReplyDeleteGreat blog! I have also been looking into the EdHeads website. I actually took the time to complete one of the simulations. It was the Knee Surgery one. I thoroughly enjoyed the simulation and I found it very informative but easy to understand.
What are some of your ideas about using this tool in the classroom? Have you ever used it? While looking at some of the content I was thinking about which ages these animations and simulations would be suitable for. I was thinking middle to upper primary and possibly even early secondary, what do you think?
There are some great activities on this site!
Cheers, Pete
