This wiki will be open during the month of November, 2008 as an accompaniment to our just published EDUCAUSE Review article, Web 2.0 Storytelling: Emergence of a New Genre in which we propose that the new tools and forms of online creation represent a new genre of storytelling and creative expression. We have set this site up partly to add a few additional resources, but more so to engage you in an open discussion where you can push back against our ideas or share more examples.

Link to "Earth Science Literacy Principles Guide." The Earth Science Literacy framework document of Big Ideas and supporting concepts is a community effort representing the current state-of-the-art research in Earth sciences. It has been written, evaluated, shaped, and revised by the top scientists working in Earth science. Because of its validity, authority, and succinct format, the ESL framework will be influential in a wide variety of scientific, educational, and political settings. Future governmental legislation will be guided by it, and future national and state educational standards will be based upon it. - comment by Brent Petersen

Great games to work on multiple skills, estimation, percent change, multiplication of decimals at multiple levels. I enjoyed the dart game!!! Can you beat 66.67% accuracy at level 3?

Vicki Davis shares her insights on using backchannel conversations with her students.

Welcome to the Catalogue of Digitized Medieval Manuscripts. This site was designed to enable users to find fully digitized manuscripts currently available on the web. You can use the search box to quickly search on specific terms, or use the "Search Manuscripts" link to search on particular fields, such as date, or provenance information. You can also browse the Catalogue by the Location of an archive or library, the shelfmark of an item, by the author of a text (where that information is available), or by the language of a text (again, where available).

Writing resources for use with teachers or students. How can we use these kinds of resources with students to address mechanices issues?

A site produced by NBC to collect news stories, share them, and reflect and respond to the perspectives presented by the news media. (Horizon Report, 2009)

Interesting resource, worth investigating, but has a nominal cost involved $20 per year.

More photos to choose from and important to understand that the fair use analysis must be done individually for each photo.

I thought this was a nice description of how and why to use some of the collaborative writing tools in classrooms.

NOAA is a great resource for some very cool photos. It's a way of getting photos that you can use for instrucitonal purposes and students can use for their work.
