Thing 23

The finishing things - youtube, podcast, were fun, interesting and engaging. Thoughout CL 2.0 online discovery was a learning experience. There was so much for me that was new. It was fun and entertaining creating a blog, avatar and other things, other times it was overwhelming. There were things that I had heard of but never tried using them so this was an oppourtunity to explore some exciting websites my favorite sites that I will continue to use are delicious, zoho, & LibraryThing. I would recommend others to take advantage of Classroom Learing 2.0.

Things 20, 21, 22

For Thing 20, I posted a fun YouTube video of a science experiment. You can find videos on YouTube about almost anything, from how to bake a cake to instructions on solving a math problem! This site would be helpful on library websites if you wanted a brief video of someone summarizing a certain book, or even reading it aloud. I can definitely see myself using YouTube.com in the future as a "how to" kind of site.

Before Thing 21, I wasn't really familiar with podcasts. After reading about them, I've learned that they are digital audio/video files, similar to having a radio station on all the time. You can download all sorts of digital files, most popular being music and books. Similar to YouTube, you can find any sort of file to download to your computer or MP3 player. I found a nice one about DisneyWorld memories, but don't think I would use podcasts too often.

Thing 19

This website I loved, I love to read and I'm always looking for good books, I will refine and reuse this site. My only problem was not being able to download some books to my blog.

Week 8: Thing 18

This is something I would definitely use, I created an account with Zoho and found it very familiar, with added bonuses, I can open a document anywhere anyplace.

Week 7: Thing 16, 17

I often use wikipedia, I didn't know that there were other uses, I like the book review, educators site and visited some other classroom uses, there could be some use by fourth graders. I really didn't see anything to sandbox that was not already there.

Thing 15

I liked the idea of an entertaining cartoon of "A Fairy Use Tale" the cartoon provides a history of Fair Use, and more imoportantly that we, who borrow from others should give credit to original works.
