    We should think about a few of these for the CARLA Tech SI (F2F). Some of them seem overlapping, but on the other hand, they give teachers more tools to choose from.
  •  
    It looks very straightforward, and it's nice to have more tools... except for when it seems overwhelming. I think the only thing that makes it easier is to be able to eliminate tools due to cost or formatting that seems unsafe for K-12.

  •  
    There is quite a few posts about Wallwisher on youtube. I wanted to share this one because the author explains how to use the tool to entice students to create an extended text that they can share with other students for comments. Combining the post-its to paragraphs and an overall texts is also a great way to look at text strucure overall. He also introduces another tool Middlespot which looks even more suitable for story telling. Check it out!

  • have used Twitter to facilitate class discussion and to gauge and deepen students’ interest and level of understanding.
  • raising awareness of personal branding. “I think it’s really important for students to think about the content of their accounts and the pictures they use,” which form part of a lasting “digital footprint,” she says. Faculty members often must remind students of the permanence of the Internet and its long-term effect on their professional image.

  • “Our students don’t really need to be taught how to connect to each other online, but teaching them to be aware of their online environments, their roles in those environments, and what their roles could be in those environments is part of encouraging their cultural awareness. I think that we do a disservice to our students when we try to keep the internet out of our classrooms, and that we should instead be encouraging them to engage as much as possible (and as critically as possible) with the endless resources that the internet places at their fingertips.”

      I still have colleagues who will not allow laptops or smartphones in the classroom.  I like the idea of teaching students how to act in different online environments.  It is a useful tool.
  •  
    Twitter, the popular microblogging site that allows users to post 140-character "tweets," both intrigues and irritates faculty, according to a Faculty Focus survey. Some embrace it as a clever way to teach concision and get students writing, thinking, and connecting with the course material and one another.
