Michelle, I'm glad you mentioned this. At the Capital Area Writing Project we've been exploring this issue, as well. We've looked at and used Wiki's, blogs, and del.icio.us. (I love del.icio.us, my "handle" is joy2educate if you'd like to become part of my network) Tomorrow we are going to learn about Voicethread. I've been thinking about this group and how we can employ this powerful tool. I agree with you about the potential, but think we need to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of each. In order to get some of the best features, there'd be a fee. Spread over 1500 members it wouldn't be bad, but if we could get a grant to cover the cost, that would be even better. I have very little knowledge about grants, but maybe someone in this group has some experience.
What do others think? Joy/NC/4 How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and content go hand in hand. http://www.responsiveclassroom.org Michelle wrote: I've been exploring a couple of "web 2.0" sites this summer and have fallen head over heels with their possibilities. I really see potential for expanding this group into one of the several social networking sites. . . . Seriously, BIG collaboration potential people! :-) (Not to mention a reduction in LONG ugly emails with all of the techno-garble attached!) _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
