I wrote this blog post about a pending lesson plan activity I have in mind for blogging in the classroom in lieu of 'traditional' homework assignments. I would really love to get your input.
"Writing appropriate emails is part of being a good digital citizen! Students (even digital natives) are not born with knowing the rules and responsibilities. Just as they need to learn to answer and talk on the phone, they need to learn about e-mail writing in an academic setting (to their teachers, Skype partners, project collaborators, administration or their classmates regarding school business)."
Crear un directorio de recursos favoritos mediante el marcador social Diigo (http://www.diigo.com/education).
Suscripción a etiquetas de contenido y creación de red de contactos que también marcan recursos con similares etiquetas de forma habitual (Consulta el apartado Recursos adicionales Diigo para más info)
Crear una entrada de blog en Internet en el aula: ¿Qué uso educativo podemos dar a los PLE-PLN?

Atender al debate en el foro: "Homofilia y estrategias de descubrimiento".
Poner en marcha por lo menos una de las estrategias que deriven del debate (Crear alertas, consultar Multibuscadores, añadir cuentas y noticias recomendadas, etc.)
seguir cuidando las redes que hemos abierto durante la primera semana. Creo que twitter, en concreto, puede ser la base del PLN que muchos de vosotros lleguéis a desarrollar en internet
sobre todo en cuanto a la elevada presencia de docentes que twittean recursos de calidad
cuando queráis lanzar a twitter cuestiones relacionadas con el debate o las actividades de este taller, para que todos podamos encontrarnos allí, utilicéis la etiqueta #pleieaula (o #pln, o #internetaula
Ayer (5.2.12) no vi nada en #pleiaula, ver próximos días, contribuir. #pln no permitía discriminar ya que se cruzaban tweets de todo tipo. Ayer #internetaula me parecía la más interesante.
pronto
recordar de nuevo el SITE en el que tenemos tutoriales a cada aspecto. En este caso, Diigo está, explicado en español en https://sites.google.com/site/plnparadocentes/diigo-recursos-adicio...
