The Social Web
In class today we have been exploring the social web. One site that I think could be especially helpful in the classroom would be Good Reads. This website is dedicated to reviews of books and what would interest different readers. If I were teaching a class and we had books to read, I would utilize this website for the students to post part or all of their book review. This way they could be proud of their work and hopefully work harder on their project because their audience is bigger. A good organization tool for teachers would be blog lines. This site bookmarks websites that could be helpful in the classroom or outside. Teachers could get lesson ideas from different sources without having to go to different websites everyday. This site gives updates whenever the site you are interested in changes. It is also convenient to have access to your bookmarks on any computer.
