Thing 20: Twitter

I have just signed up for Twitter and left my first tweet. I followed a few of my family and friends. This is exciting!

Thing 6: Ning

I have been exploring ning. It is similar to facebook only specialized for what you are interested in networking about. I signed up for Classroom 2.0 and I am waiting for approval.

Delicious Bookmarking

I have been exploring the Delicious site. I searched for project based learning and Cognitively Guided Instruction. I am not sure that I will use this at this time due to a lack of comfort with finding information this way.

Project Based Learning

Project based learning is something that I have not done in years. I would like to explore this issue again this year because teachers in our district are being trained in project based learning. I wonder if there is a project that would work in the math lab when I only see K-6 students for 40 minutes each week. I would like to think about the possibilities for spreading a project out over time.
