  • Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus Use these techniques to locate authors: If looking on the page doesn't reveal an author's name, look on the Web site. Try truncating the url to see if there are clues about authorship or links to an author on other pages--remove the end of the address back to a significant break ( / ) or the root of the site. If the site provides links to 'about us' or 'contact us,' check there for author information. If the site provides a search engine, enter the name of the article and see if information about the author is retrieved. This may require careful reading. Search a different site. Enter information about the article in search engines like Google and see if any information about the author is retrieved. This may require careful reading.

WatchKnow - Free Educational Videos for K-12 Students - 1 views

  • We believe that everyone should have the same opportunity to learn. The best way to make this possible, we believe, is to organize into one, super directory the hundreds of thousands of good videos currently available on the Internet. To make this a reality, we invite teachers, instructors and educators to suggest videos for inclusion into our directory, and then to review, approve, and assign those videos into appropriate categories using a wiki framework and philosophy. The videos are the highest quality found on the World Wide Web, cover all major educational topics from elementary to secondary schools (or age range 1 – 18), and are Kid Safe!

      This is a great site that provides videos for educators to use in their classrooms. It's organized in a wiki framework so that all types of educators can collaborate in order to provide great tools for students. I encourage my teachers to search for videos they can use in their classroom as well as to share videos they have created.

There is an advisory committee that chooses which videos are appropriate for the site and each video is tagged with an age appropriate label. You can search by subject area or a keyword search.

    Glogster is a great Web 2.0 tool that I am using for the second year in my classes. Glogs are essentially online posters that allow users to display information in a different format than the traditional poster or powerpoint. Users can upload pictures, video, and audio, or they search glogster's database for relevant images, etc.

Web 2.0 Guru - 0 views

    As I was searching for some tools that I could post, I came across this website. I thought it looked interesting because it have some of the same tools we are using plus some others. As I looked a little deeper... WOW I have always wanted to go more indepth with my vocabulary that I teach, and if you teach vocab, you need to check out Vocabulary Activities. I wanted a way to present a new word and then show the students all the related forms with the same root. Visuwords (http://www.visuwords.com) does just that. I can use it; the students can use it. And it also breaks related words down by part of speech. There are so many other options a teacher could use.
