Well, I always learn a lot when I go to technology workshops. Yesterday, I went to CUELA (Computer Using Educators Los Angeles). I attended some great workshops about Google Earth and Sketchup; two free applications you can download at Google's website. In the afternoon, I attended a workshop about using iPods in the classroom. I got some wonderful resources, but one of the other benefits of attending was talking with some really tech-savvy computer users. One of the workshop organizers shared a great website to help add captions or translations onto your videos (thank you, Matthew!). I went to check it out, and within about 30 minutes, I'd finished captioning my first video. This video segment was filmed in 2004, and showed one of my students explaining how she reads and organizes her braille books. This might be useful for teachers to show to classroom teachers to help them understand the space requirement for those braille books. Check out the video, then go to http://dotsub.com to see how you can caption or translate videos yourself!

Hello!
I found the video posted on dotsub about braille reading. When I tryed to translate it into spanish (I would like to transcribe it and put it in my blog) I wasn´t allowed to.
I received this message:
Your current permisions do not allow you to view this page. If you are trying to access a video you might want to contact the video owner if you believe you should have access.
Thank you.
Love your video! Very informative and great self advocacy skills in action.
