tHURSDAY, the twenty-eighth of oCTOBER, 2011 CE

Today in class, Keri came to us full of brand new (to her AND to us) Web 2.0 tools.  There were so many different tools that I couldn't write them all down.  However, the ones I checked out were:
  • Newspaper Generator (create a newspaper-type article)
  • SketchFu (create or find drawings, post them, see them drawn)
  • Pintrest (pinned related articles, pictures, and websites together)
  • Tikatok (create a book)
  • WallWisher (pin together links, videos, pictures)
Some cool stuff in those pages.  I especially liked the Newspaper Generator... I think that would be fun for students to use to create stories, reactions, and/or projects.

Keri just mentioned going upstairs to the Language Lab again to work further on screencasting.  This makes me excited, because maybe I can get some work done on my lesson redesign!  :)

Social Bookmarking: Accessing your favorite websites from anywhere at anytime... and share with other teachers.  I'm excited to get this information explained- this didn't make sense to me when I read the chapter.
  • Diigo : A social bookmarking site that will keep a hold of all of the pages you want to bookmark.
