SAMPLE BLOGS
Here is a sample Blog from Herb Campbell where grade 3 students are recounting their adventures of raising salmon.
A great example of the power of blogging to spark discussions on deeper topics.
I met Royan a few years back when we worked together on an action research project around digital storytelling and student motivation to write for the triboard project. His passion for 21st century learning is contagious. He is always an inspiration to me.
I found this blog through a friend. I really appreciated the teacher's honesty and reflection on play based learning.
Our attempt at a school blog. It was a great learning experience and a fun way to share our work with parents and students and give them the chance to respond.
We had two student blogmasters who used it as an extension activity to their class work.
We definitely learned a lot
I'm hoping this will be a way to stay connected with teachers in our superintendency this year and beyond and a tool to begin conversation. Click on comment at the bottom a post to leave a comment.
SAMPLE WIKIS
The first wiki I ever participated in was this former email project for early elementary students, counting our lost teeth and sharing the information with classes from around the world.
This wiki is one that we are using for our 4 part tech series after school sessions. It it a home base for all the great tools we are discovering together.
A wiki dedicated to age appropriate non fiction books for elementary students who have been created by individuals (including students) world wide.
TOOLS
Edublogs.org is a great blogging tool for educators. The editing tools are simple, but yet complex enough to allow you to include a variety of media. There is a free version avaialble. Great tool to use with students since you can create student accounts as well as moderate comments
A great wiki tool to use with students since you have several different options. You can get a free upgrade as an K-12 educator.
Another tool you can use. They will let you create one site for free in education with up to 50 generic users (no emails required).
Voicethread is an online tool that lets you share personal stories with an audience for feedback and comments. There are many different applications in the classroom from reports to recounts to recipes.
Planning on working collaboratively online this year? Before you start it is important to discuss our digital footprint and digital etiquette (or netiquette). Brain Pop is always a fun way to introduce the topic and start the conversation
RESOURCES
This February's issue dedicated to teaching the 21st century learner.
