Would you like to learn more about us and maybe even join us online? The 2008-2009 school year marks our adventure incorporating web 2.0 components. Below you will find where else you can find us online. As much as possible, our blog includes feeds from other web 2.0 components. I have included the sponsors powering our web 2.0 madness in case you would like your own:)

WIKI
What is a wiki? A wiki is a website that allows visitors to add, remove, and edit information. Basically this is our way to collaboratively collect information. It is like our very own wikipedia focused on our class topics. As we work on various projects, the students add information and pages to the wiki.

SOCIAL BOOKMARKING
We are using Diigo as our social bookmarking tool. Basically we use the Diigo toolbar instead of marking favorites only viewable on our computer. With Diigo my students and I can share websites and even highlight information on the websites and add sticky notes. We can also access our bookmarks from anywhere!

SOCIAL NETWORK
Currently I am only a member of a social network, Classroom 2.0 and haven’t ventured into creating a social network. Maybe that will be an idea for the 2009-2010 school year:) Classroom 2.0 is a social network created on Ning. Ning is also a great place for you to look for more social networks to join.

SOCIAL MESSAGING
Yes, I am twitter fan:) It has been a great way to meet other educators:) We use iChat in the classroom for general messaging and transferring files.
