Week 8 Thing 20

I signed up for the ning and facebook came to mind. This is a well designed social network website. I can see using this as a way to communicate with students.

Week 8 Thing 19

This is a tool that my wife and I use all of the time. We like to show places to our kids where we live and where we are going to vacation. This is a great tool to use to show students how big the world actually is. FUN.....

Week 8 Thing 18

Most inspiring nominess
This was a great slideshare for this time of the year. I plan on using these in my professional development classess. I can also see this being used in the classroom in place of powerpoint.

Week 7 Thing 17

I was searching for a podcast to look at and searched in many different places and was not successful in finding a link that would work on my computer. So I am wondering if this is something that I could expect my students to do if I can't then I would assume they can't. So I believe this is something that I would never use in my classroom.

Week 7 Thing 16

Youtube is a great way to keep up with current events. I was watching lots of things on Tiger Woods this past week. I think it is a great way to motivate students to get involved in their learning and take some interest in things relevant to them.

Week 6 Thing 15 My Crib

Thing 14 Week 6 voicethread

After playing around with the voice thread I think I could implement this into my classroom. I plan on using this as a tool for students to communicate with each other outside of the classroom. In my class we do a lot of team work but I had a hard time assigning team work outside of the classroom. This tool now will allow me to give students the opportunity to work together on their own time.
