Todd found out about MOVE IT from a podcast called The PE Geek. Episode 100 listed 100 ways to use technology in the PE classroom, but many of these can apply in any classroom. The MOVE IT extension works like a pop up ad. When a person is sedentary on a device or at their desk MOVE IT will pop up and prompt the user to do an exercise such as 10 arm circles. You can set an interval amount so that it reminds you to move anywhere from 5 to 55 minutes. Install MOVE IT today!
As a physical educator, Todd loves this tool to get people up and moving. This is a great reminder for people who work at a desk all day to get up and move around more. Not the most sophisticated piece of technology, but it helps people MOVE!
Simple music-making for everyone Google recently announced a new web tool for Google Chrome called Chrome Music Lab. There are 13 different options to create sounds and music. I am terrible at music and even I found it fun to play around with. The Song Maker is a great one to get started with.
