Thing #23

Well, I must say it has been a process to learn about so many Web 2.0 features! I think right now I'm a little overwhelmed at the number of discoveries I have made since beginning this program. I think I am going to make the most use of my blog site and plan to post it on my website during the school year so that I can interact with my students (the ones who are interested). I would like to continue learning more and plan to continue discovering new websites, etc. that will enrich my classroom experiences. This has definitely taken me out of my comfort zone!

Thing #22

I visited the first three Ning sites and found the Ning for Teachers the most useful. Since I teach 6th graders, I found out that they can't legally use their email address on a website like this. So, I think I would use the Teacher Ning for sharing and receiving ideas to help me in the classroom. I had never heard of this until I took this online course!

Thing #21

I'm trying to save my Photostory project, however, it's not letting me record my voice so I will upload it as is and then go back later to try adding the voice. My microphone was messed up and my son was helping me fix it!

Thing #20

I found a cute video about Web 2.0 in plain English! I have used Teacher Tube and YouTube videos in my classroom already many times. They are both great resources for lessons.
