Who's running Quality Control and Fact Checking in a Tech Rich, Differentiated, Persona... - 0 views

  • We need to consider the role of wikis, social networking sites like Edmodo and Twitter and blogs in crowdsourcing support in checking each other’s work.
  • Too often students will highlight random sections of text to show they have found some key words but ignore major details within the same paragraph.
  •  
    The question we should all be asking ourselves when we let others take the reigns. I think this blog post asks a series of important questions, and reminds us that we need to take these powerful tools and use them at a level of depth that ensures users are getting the most out of them.

Best Websites for Teaching & Learning 2013 | American Association of School Librarians ... - 1 views

  • Create connections, encourage collaboration, ignite discussions, or simply share mutual interests through Pinterest. Uploaded or “pin” images and videos from websites, blogs, or your own computer, smartphone, or tablet to create boards. These boards can be private or public, and others can be invited to pin on any of your boards. Any “pin” can be "repinned", and all pins will link back to their source. Grades 6-12. Tip: Have students work in groups to create research projects and share their sources visually.

Blogging About The Web 2.0 Connected Classroom: Why Diigo Rocks! - 1 views

  • One of the most powerful features is the tagging. Basically, if I save Google.com and don't tag it, I will have to remember the name of the site or something in the address. That can be tough when you start to get 1000-2000 saves like I do. Trying to remember exactly the name of a site I want to share just isn't going to happen. Instead I use tags. With tags I can categorize my saves.
