Wikispaces - Wikis for Teachers - 1 views

  •  
    This website is a site where teachers can go and create a wiki for their class.  I would use it for different subjects or just for my class as a whole.

    Good source to pass on to teachers looking to expand in their classroom. Neat examples that would benefit the teacher that is looking to challenge their students. I have been looking for something like this to help our English teacher wanting a good source with Wikis - Thanks

    I thought this was a great, easy to understand resource. It also gives great examples. For me, it answered a lot of questions about wikis that I had. It also gives great ideas of how to use them. Overall, a very informative great website!

Khan Academy - 1 views

  •  
    If you haven't heard of Khan Academy I definitely think it's worth checking out. I'm under the impression that it is popular for many, many students. Who knows, maybe your students will be visiting this website that delivers free lessons on a variety of subjects! Even better, maybe it will you help create content specific knowledge.

    This website is great our students visit either the app or website on a daily basis. Its just not for math, we have students looking up science and english. Its also a great resource if you are thinking of flipping your classroom.

    Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future classroom? Explain why or why not. I agree that I can use this resource in the future of my own classroom. This resource gives great ideas on how to use blogging effectively and ways to get students blogging in the classroom. I like how it is organized by regions of the United States. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe this blog is mostly for teacher use, but its use for teachers explains how teachers can allow students to get into blogging or gives resources to help with their classroom teaching. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. I'm sure there are other blogs that compile great blogging resources, but I have not come across such a compiled list.

    This is an intriguing list and looks like the various blogs deserve time to be looked at more. It is always interesting (if not therapeutic) to read from others "in the trenches." Two that I enjoyed reading were "TeachBad" and "TeachPaperless." Some good comic relief was provided, as well as some interesting ideas! I'm wouldn't say this site is really useful for students, but then again, maybe they'd be nicer to us if they read stuff like this. ::smile::

    This resource is an awesome compilation of great teacher blogs from around the country and world. It can totally be used as a resource for students as they begin to learn how to blog or for those aspiring to be on that list to reach a little higher! This resource is mainly one for teacher use, but all the ideas inside these blog links makes it readily apparent and available to be used in a current classroom. There are a number of similar lists out there (take a look and blog the title and a few come up) so this is not a one of a kind list; however, it is expansive and does provide a good list of HS teachers to follow and their regions. Cool idea for sure! How many of these are you going to follow now?

    Randon, I'm sure I'll end up following quite a few. Unfortunately I haven't had time to delve too deeply into the list. It is on my to do list though! :)

    Excellent source for teachers. I shared this with our English teacher who does things with blogs and wiki's in her classroom. She was very excited for new material to use. There are many different and unique topics in this site which she had never seen before.
