    The "hook" discussed in education is always important to capture your audience and I think the illustration and explanation in the beginning of this paper were great. Painting pictures for your audience tend to draw your readers in and get them to thinking while they are reading. Although this paper involved research, there was more personal knowledge, which isnt a bad thing, but some areas did need more research to support the argument. Although each section was written in good detail, the flow of the paper was not present due to the lack of transitional phrases or the ability of the reader to stay connected throughout the entire paper. Overall, the writers have extensive knowledge in the content, but more research would need to be incorporated to support the arguments or statements. Thanks.

    Again, I have noticed papers that have a nice, smooth word flow. This is great to allow the reader to feel as if the writers are knowledgeable of the content. This paper did provide useful, informative information for any novice who wishes to know the simple and complex world of educational technology. I would recommend more input from the writers with the mixture of supported resources, opposed to research then supported comments. Overall, this paper was well written, supported by resources other than the main source. The writers did include examples to illustrate the content. Overall, I think it was a well-written paper. Great! :)

    Thanks,
    Mary

    Hello Group 1,

    5 (FIVEEEEE!!!!)

    From the beginning of the paper, I was immediately informed of the topics,arguments,etc. From reading the introduction alone, I knew that this paper would flow quite well. I was always taught in English to provide a point,illustration, and explanation. You have supported your paper with numerous sources besides the textbook, which shows that you have provided in-depth knowledge based on more than one perspective. You have provided illustrations of the usage technology, highlighting the various tools of use and level of knowledge needed to utilize these tools. Each paragraph supported your topics and they transitioned with ease. This paper was written with a concrete knowledge of the topic, which allows for the reader to not feel confused, but well able to follow the "path" of the paper very well. Sentence structure and word usage were not too technical or mediocre. Although formatting may have been off here, Im sure it was correct in its original format. I honestly feel that this paper deserves a five because of the detail of the topic, sentence structure, word flow, and sources used to provide an in depth perspective. Thanks!

      Wetpaint Wiki was most effective when used with other synchronous communcation tools such as Elluminate. Although it did help us organize meeting notes, meeting times,etc, if the individuals in the group didnt check it often, it wasnt very useful. I think Wetpaint is more effective when you have consistent communication utilizing tool with active users. On the other hand, as far as keeping individuals abreast of the group activities and comments on specific topics and assignments, it did great.

      Hi Professor, Yes Wiki tools are quite useful and I do plan to incorporate them into the Unit Plan, and I think one of the many ways to make sure students are utilizing the tools are to grade them on their contributions. In order for this to happen though, an assignment that would be further enhanced through wiki would have to be created that would require extensive usage of the wiki ( similar to the treatise paper) and as the discussant was being graded, it would be used in a similar manner. * this sounds neat as I write, but I wonder how difficult it would be to implement?* ..lol! Thanks Professor! :)

      I think the five most critical elements of distributed learning are the following: Effective Collaboration Integration of Creativity with guided expectations Effective Communication Tools Incorporation of Web 2.0 tools for indepth learning Involved Moderators/Instructors to Guide Learning

      Hi Everyone, I added a sticky note here to let you all know I added the conversation from Elluminate between Max and me. Again, sorry they changed the time for my mom's dinner and my second to oldest sister wouldnt let me use her laptop to let you all know where I was....she is in school to but she could have let me used for a sec...lol. Thanks. I think I may try to send you all a video discussing my thoughts on the assignment but we will see how that works out...take care.
