I have to say that blog
spot and twitter have been the two most effective tools for me. They both are
user friendly and effective communication tools. I am able to update them both
from my phone in an instant. I have enjoyed sharing these tools.
Blog spot has engaged me more than any of the other
tools. I have shared this with many of my peers. I have incorporated blogging
within my class. My students are able to share their ideas and thoughts about
the particular topic. One of my student informs me when we have missed an
opportunity to blog. One interesting part of blogging is that it allows me to
assess what my students know in a short amount of time. It allows me opportunities
to clear up on any misconceptions on an individual bases. I have also started a
communication blog on my school wires page. This allows my parents to see what
the students are learning, homework, and other important events that are coming
up. Blogging has also allowed me to communicate with my peers. I am able to
post a blog or one of my peers post the blog to begin a discussion.
Twitter has to be my favorite even though I have not
learned to use this tool for learning. I have been able to learn personal and
share with my peers things that I have learned from Twitter, but my goal is to
incorporate Twitter into my class. What I really like about Twitter is that I
am able to create a list of friends and hashtags, and share information with
that group. I have learned the effectiveness of the hashtags and I absolutely
love to use hashtags.
