    Just to get it started:

    edtec448 was used by Jonathan

    professionaldevelopment was mentioned by Patty.

    I'm sure there are more posted elsewhere I did not catch.

    I would / could easily change mine to make this easier...I was really more worried about estabilshing lists when I first began than I was tags.
  • Jonathan Black
     
    I see one way to create a unified system would be to move closer to ELEs (most of us have many of those in common) and or the teaching and learning resources (from WELES) even Instructional sites and Learning Sites...any thoughts..?

    Jeremy,
    Thanks for getting us started on this!
    How about teacher resources? I don't know what to call it...but I am thinking something with rubrics, clip art, templates, etc. Ideas? General resources?

    How about science news sites? (I think someone mentioned that)

    Maybe animations/interactive sites?

    We need to get enough tags (maybe 5 or 6?) that are broad enough we can each post 10 sites to
  • Jeremy Rellinger
     
    The current list of possible tags and associated content is as follows: These are subject to analysis and change.

    1. professionaldevelopment: organizations, continued education, profession (non-subject matter related) publications, etc.

    2. teacherresources: general physical/printable items, templates, rubrics, forms, etc.

    3. visualaids: clip art, animations, images, video, interactive sites, etc.

    4. currentevents: science and/or math publications, content specific news events, etc.

    5. technology: information/ideas regarding incorporating technological tools, updates in software, strategies, contact organizations or references, etc.

    I like it! Do we want to add science fair/science skills/metrics? Is that something everyone can use? I think one of us is a math teacher but the rest are science.
  • Dawn Deibler
     
    I think I am the only math teacher so we should definitely go with whatever the majority can use. I really like the 5 mentioned by Jeremy and can use them. Could we include a tag for sites where students practice or apply what they have learned?

    Work in progress...

    1. professionaldevelopment: organizations, continued education, profession (non-subject matter related) publications, etc.

    2. teacherresources: general physical/printable items, templates, rubrics, forms, etc.

    3. visualaids: clip art, animations, images, video, interactive sites, etc.

    4. currentevents: science and/or math publications, content specific news events, etc.

    5. technology: information/ideas regarding incorporating technological tools, updates in software, strategies, contact organizations or references, etc.

    6. studentpractice (application / demonstration of acquired knowledge or skill)

    7. pedagogy (general education direction)

    8. assessment (separate assessment from teacherresources???)

    9.

    10.
  • Dawn Deibler
     
    Maybe some sort of communication tag? This could include student wikis or message boards. The 8 listed seem really comprehensive to me. They are broad enough to include lots of different things but also different enough to be individual things. I am not sure what isn't covered.

    Perhaps government sites including state and federal?
  • Patty McGinnis
     
    we can stop at 8; we just have to make sure we have no more than 10.
    Is there enough here that everyone can "donate" 10 of their sites to fleshing out our group list? (additional searching is ok)
  • Jeremy Rellinger
     
    What if we had "studentapplications," as a tag which would include student practice/skill demonstrations/wikis/discussion forums, etc as mentioned above for #6?

    And I think assessment would be a separate category from teacher resources. Good addition Jonathan.

    What if we put pedagogy items into prof. dev.? Then we could have projects as an 8th category.
  • Patty McGinnis
     
    Is there someone who wants to volunteer to post our "tags?" I won't be able to be able to get to it until tomorrow night. Let me know if you want me to do it then.
  • Jonathan Black
     
    thanks Dawn!

    JB
  • Patty McGinnis
     
    Thank you Dawn!!! It looks great; I am looking forward to getting everyone's sites...the power of sharing really is great!
