  • Subscribing to Blogs For those not already familiar with this … there are two common ways to do this – some blogs allow users to subscribe by simply entering their email address (and then confirming the validating email sent to them). The more common technique for subscribing to a blog is to subscribe to an RSS Feed. An RSS Feed directs the blog, or a summary and link to it, to a special place where you can go and view it (as opposed to having it go to your crowded email In Box).
  • Some suggested sites where you can create your Education-specific Blog There are many websites on the Internet where educators can write their own blogs. One way to do this is to become part of an organization that provides its members a place to blog, such as Educause, or Classroom 2.0. The other way to write your own blog is to set yourself up on one of the many sites that are designed to allow you to create your own domain or subdomain, where the content is entirely yours. While this may sound a little daunting to newbies, it really isn’t too hard to get started. Below I have listed two such sites, both of which are free, and are very widely used.

  • Collaboration/Communication. A
  • Because tagging is a very personal procedure14, many users don’t know how to designate sites, which leads to different styles of bookmarking the Web15. Javier Cañadas (2006) suggests four styles of tagging for del.icio.us users:
  • The selfish style. We tag only according to our individual context. Our tags have personal meaning (only for our own benefit), are irrelevant to other users and difficult to place in the social context of the del.icio.us network of users (for example, Oliver, for Tiya, etc. are tags which indicate resources saved for my husband or for my daughter). In time, it is possible that this type of user will classify content under generally accepted, more theme-oriented tags. This doesn’t exclude selfishness, but attributes a certain social utility to tags. The social benefit of such a classification consists in the user’s maturity.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • The friendly type. We tag for the people we know: friends, colleagues, project partners, etc. This style is typical both for large groups and for small ones. The social benefit is great and the motivation lies in belonging to a group, in the desire to share with others what you know, to contribute to online content.
  • The altruist type. We use tags as general as possible and as many as we can for a resource. We try, using key words, to describe as objectively/realistically as possible the resource that we post, so that it is of interest to the great majority of users of the most popular social bookmarking service. The social benefit is huge because it involves generosity.
  • The popular style. Popular tagging is used in order to get more views. There is absolutely no social benefit. Such tagging is considered spagging = spam+tagging16 (we find resources marked with top10, sex, interesting, etc.). This tagging procedure is considered artificial and is disapproved by the rest of the users because it reflects the tendency of some marketers to get a better position in the lists of results posted by search engines17.

    With this site you can create a face using various types of eyes, noses, lips, ears, eyebrows and hair. Once you have created a face you can manipulate it by scaling it up or down, rotating or flipping it. You also have the option to save your picture and email it to friends and family. Overall, I think this is a good site for children to explore creative technology. My biggest concerned was I could not find a statement on who the target audience was. For this reason be sure to carefully watch children when they are at this site.

    I really liked and enjoyed this website! I liked the freedom to personalize the face I was creating. With the editing tools of color and scaling up and down, I was able to create numerous completely different faces. I think this activity could be great for older children and could let them explore all of the options online art sites can offer.

  • they enable users to articulate and make visible their social networks
  • While SNSs have implemented a wide variety of technical features, their backbone consists of visible profiles that display an articulated list of Friends1 who are also users of the system.
  • Structural variations around visibility and access are one of the primary ways that SNSs differentiate themselves from each other.

  • SNSs vary greatly in their features and user base

  • Unlike previous SNSs, Facebook was designed to support distinct college networks only.

  • "Friends" on SNSs are not the same as "friends" in the everyday sense; instead, Friends provide context by offering users an imagined audience to guide behavioral norms.

  • most SNSs primarily support pre-existing social relations.

    Floorplanner is a resource that I discovered in my EDIT 2000 class and have used numerous times since then. It is an interior design software that helps create layouts and floorplans, as the name might suggest. What does this have to do with education, right? My original use for it was to create my ideal classroom in the land of unlimited resources. If I wanted to, I could go back in and create a more realistic classroom so I could visually lay out how I wanted to conserve my space. This tool would be useful for anyone trying to visually plan out how to lay out a space, whether it be a classroom, bedroom, hospital room, cafeteria, etc. This resource taught me a lot about classroom layout and the way to make a classroom more efficient and user-friendly, which is huge in any educational setting.

    Webstarts allows users to create a webpage for sharing photos, videos, and information. A classroom teacher could create a class webpage that parents can access, increasing the parents' classroom involvement. My favorite part of this website is that there are preloaded templates to make designing a page simpler. One option even looks like a page from a scrapbook, allowing the teacher to make a "scrapbook" of her class.
