Done

My favorite discovery exercises were Flickr Mashups and Animoto because they both had to do with pictures. Pictures are a big part of my life and those two tools make the experience fun. I'm glad I have been exposed to a variety of tools and programs out there that I can utilize either personally or in my classroom, especially the ones that will keep me organized. I think 23 Things is a lot to do and it takes away from some of the discoveries that could use more emphasis. Maybe leave the 23 Things and let people choose which ones they want to explore.


I have learned that there are a lot of resources available that should be utilized in a classroom. Unfortunately, it was the first time several of them have been brought to my attention, such as the various applications Google has, and I don't want that to be the case for my students. I will inform them as much as possible about all the great tools that are out there.



I'm going to stay up to date with a variety of Web 2.0 sites. It's easy to stay current on social networking sites, but I'm going to keep on reading some of the blogs that I joined (Cool Cat Teacher). I'm also going to keep on using iGoogle and all the gadgets I added on there and Big Huge Labs.
