Let me start off today's post by saying that there was a lot of great education chat today via #edchat on Twitter. If you are available at 7pm EST tonight, I suggest that you join in on the fun. Topic focuses on the changes in 21st Century Education and 20th Century Education. While sick I saved a collection of Tweets with valuable resources and information. I use Instapaper to save Tweets. It is also available on the iPhone.
1.) I am really interetsed in getting students to use Wiki's at my school...still waiting on a policy for them, but when that time comes, here is a great collection of resources for using Wiki's in the classroom.
2.) Comics in the Classroom - 100 Tips, Tools, and Resources! I am really big on Comics and the kids love them. Highly recommend checking this site out.
3.) From the Teacher Reboot Camp - 12 Word Cloud Resources...Something other than Wordle. She beat me to the punch. Planned on this for a Friday post, but why reinvent the wheel!
4.) A Huge selection of Web 2.0 resources and blog posts about each one. Farr-Out Links to Learning.
5.) Posterize Anything - Blockposters is a site to turn anything into a wall poster for free!
6.) Want to increase fiber optic cables in your community or city? Nomiate your community and see if Google chooses you!
7.) Here is a great social network for art teachers who are wondering how to implement Web 2.0 in their classrooms.
8.) Great list of Web 2.0 resources with screen shots of each webpage. Addictive Tech Crisps for Education
9.) Colabopad - Interesting new Collaborative Writing Pad - Worth playing around on.
10.) Summer Workation - A place for teachers to find work during the summer. I know I could always use some extra money.
And just for Fun...Learn Something Every Day.
Nice collection of Tweets, I am sorry to have missed #edchat this morning, hoping to join in this afternoon. Hope to tweet you there (couldn't resist, hee hee).
