So unfair to put that fun Travel IQ game on this thing! It was a real distraction! Good thing I didn't have to teach the next day. I did have the self control to look through the web 2.0 winners first. I enjoyed looking at some of the sites that I've heard of but not used, like Craig's list and fixya. It was interesting to see that many of the sites are ones I use or that we've learned about in the class. I like Pandora, the google sites, picasso, facebook, twitter, the wiki sites and my husband has used linked in.
I'm not sure how many of them have applications to my classroom. But, I am always open to that. There are times that I am planning a lesson and one of these sites comes to mind as a good tool to use. That's one reason I'm so enjoying this class. It stimulates me to think about how to use the tools available on the net for educational purposes.
It was really interesting to see that when I went to farecast it has already been taken over by bing. One thing that is for sure is that the internet changes quickly.
