Thing 15

I went to the 23 things wiki site. It was pretty easy to use. I posted about my plans to use blogging in my classroom. I am not sure if I would use a wiki. Maybe if I wanted my kids to brainstorm some ideas for a topic in class. I could create the wiki and give them maybe 2-3 days to think it over and post some comments. This would get their thoughts headed in the direction of the next topic. Another idea I had was to have a homework wiki site. Where kids could go to ask questions for discuss their homework with each other. I am not sure how these would work but I would like to try to incorporate more student used technology into my curriculum.

I just created my own wiki page. I am still learning so it is very simplistic. I want to learn how to make it like the one we posted to. That might work even better for me because I have 2 classes that I teach. I am going to continue to play.

Impressive! Don't worry if you don't see an immediate use for a particular tool. There are so many - just start with one or two. You may find a use for a wiki later on.
