"During the last six or so years I have created a number of 'how-to' documents and presentations for a variety of web based and related technologies. They are available from the various workshop web pages however I thought it might prove helpful to link to all the documents from a single page. Some of my workshop participants have referred to these documents as 'cheat sheets'."

  Wouldn't it be great if you could do that with a Kindle? How much more would kids love reading if they could highlight, ask questions and offer thoughts to a vast audience of readers? Now that would really change the game for reading!

If my class was using social bookmarking they could have then shared those bookmarks so we can all visit the sites and highlight and comment on our favorite parts or parts we still don’t understand.  With Diigo in place in your classroom at home reading assignments can be commented on all in the same place. Students can come to class, with questions in mind from what conversations where started through highlights and comments.

So, the idea is to have an alternate assessment at the end of each chapter. The alt. assessment will be created using one of many technologies we have discussed in our class (ex. animoto, flipbook, comicstrips, prezi). At midterm I plan on assigning a larger project, more cumlative of course.

  It's great that you're planning a way for students to be creative when completing your project. I think it will really help them take ownership of it.
