Today I chose to do some searching on the Delicious web site. I found it easy to set up and account and after I was shown how to use the toolbar I found it quite easy to save tags. I find that using this site will be easy to use with my students in researching information I want them to use, learn, and know. It was very interesting to use the delicious site to view what others had saved that might coincide with what I want to use.
Although I integrate technology quite extensively in my classroom I really enjoyed researching sites that I haven't had time to use. Having this time to research has allowed me to discover new innovative ways to reach my students using technology. In my opinion it is great using technology but it is crucial to keep up with current information for the courses I teach. I was able to accomplish some of that today.
Blogging is the thing that is outside my comfort zone. However this is something that might be a great activity to use with my real life classes. I really appreciate the new concepts that were shown to me today.
Great work on this blog, Sheree. I hope both Delicious and the blog idea will work in the classroom for you. If you post updates here, I'll see how it's going.
Great job on your first blog, Sheree. You are right: keeping up with technology innovations is important. I hope the seminar days help you do just that!
