Thing 16

There sure was a lot of reading on this step. I think I would most likely use this as a collaborative sight for grade level information possible training with the SIS and other support staff. I will have to review the information again after I complete the course to really see what I can do with the information.

Are there any 3-5 grade teachers that could give me some ideas on how to use wikis in their classroom?

Thing 15

Library 2.0, or web 2.0 is an interesting concept. I think I am old fashion in that I love curling up with a book to read. My eyes have trouble focusing on a computer screen for very long. That said, I do think the web and all of the up to date information is better than older books that have outdated information. I was reading someone else's post and agree that teachers will need to do a good job of teaching the students on evaluationg the information for authenticity and accuracy. The teachers themselves will definitely need to be trained on how to teach this aspect of the web.

thing #14

I have gone through this "thing: twice and do not think I totally understand the process. I do not forsee that I would use Techorati.

I was reading some of the other blogs and am getting to the point that I do not feel comfortable signing up for each sight. I did not join or sign up for this one so maybe that is why I had so much trouble understanding it.

Onward to the next level.
