This is a neat article on teaching math with social media. Some of the ideas can be applied to other subject areas as well.

This is a link to a wiki where people can prove that 0.9999999 is equivalent to 1. This qualifies as a wiki because anyone can edit the page (the earliest entry I found was from 2008.) I like this wiki because it shows many ways to prove the two values are equivalent. Some of the proofs are rather simple and can be understood by students in an beginning or intermediate algebra class. I would use this wiki in my teaching by asking students if they agree with the proofs and to come up with their own proofs for the values.

This abstract written by an engineering professor at Cal Poly Engineering offers research and support for a new trend in education called, "the Inside-Out Classroom." The abstract describes how the inside out classroom is a win-win-win strategy for teaching with technology. Instructors create "chunks" of core content in a digital, lecture-capture format. These resources are then stored online for students. These are short videos that students watch before attending class sessions. Students study core content for a course online on their own, and then complete assignments during in-class sessions.

Not all of the posted suggestions can be applied to our level of teaching, but some good ideas are posted.

It wasn't so long ago that scientists had only a couple of ways to share their work with the world: publishing in a research journal or presenting at a scientific meeting. This often limited exposure to a relatively small sphere of scientists.

In a recent survey by the Center for Education Policy, nearly all teachers agreed that collaboration is generally a good use of their time. To get that valuable time and space to collaborate with fellow educators-in their city, state, country or across the world-some teachers are taking to online networks and DIY-ing their own face-to-face meet-ups.

When it comes to trying something new or looking into more tools. I believe I would like to do more research to see what other online instructors are doing. In this case, I found a great website called, eLearning Industry: www.elearningindustry.com. Here I can find articles written by online teaching professionals and for online teaching professionals. Also, the website is easy to navigate and always updated.
