Week 3 Learning Curve

Well since I already have a Facebook account, it was fun completing some of the applications. I completed a poll regarding Sarah Palin running for President in 2012, what's your Native American Indian Name, Which Gilligan's Island Character are you?, and Who is your Guardian Angel? These were fun and quick to complete.

I also joined a few sites on Ning. They seem to have a wealth of information. I will be interested in spending some more time on Ning's site.

Week 2 Learning Curve

During the course of extensive reading from Will Richardson book: Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts and Other Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms, I have learned much about how Wikis can be used in the classroom. Before my reading, I was not aware of how much Wikis can help our student's collaborate on assignments and thus increase their learning. I am excited about creating my first Wiki. I have decided to create a Wiki for my classroom this fall and use it as a reference tool for our parents.
