During this week's assignments I learned that web 2.o is all the sites available on the internet today that allow people to interact with the page. These can be in blogs or wikis. I learned that a wiki is like a website, and can be a great tool for classrooms. I would like to have my own class wiki when I begin teaching. The website GoodReads is where I can get together with colleagues to discuss literature and give and receive recommendations for books. This is a great website to collaborate and find new materials to share with my students. Diigo is a website where I can connect with my friends and discuss reading as well. I can find websites from my friends that may be of interest to me. I can also highlight and make notes on the things I read on the internet. Google reader allows me to subscribe to different webpages and recieve updates from their articles. I can read all of the webpages I subscribe to using Google Reader. The most difficult thing I did was add different things onto my wiki page. I had a little bit of trouble trying to get some of the media and images I wanted onto my new pages I created. Overall however, it was pretty easy to navigate. I can't decide which activity was the most useful. I found all of the new technologies extremely useful especially the wiki.
Hi Nichole,
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with your wiki. I loved learning about animals and checking out your survey. Despite the fact that this was a difficult assignment for you, you completed it beautifully! Great work on the wiki and this blog. :)
