Thing 22 Ning
I created my Ning account and introduced myself and withing 45 minutes someone sent me suggestions for 2 sites that they thought i might be interested in. How cool is that! Networking is a great way to share ideas and from everything i read in the introducion of this topic, the students are way ahead of us in social networking. We tend to wait until that class reunion comes around every 10-15 years and attend the reunion. Think how much fun it would be to connect during the years in between! I did go to the Classroom 2.0 site and spent some time looking around. I felt like i was in a virtual reality site. It was almost TOO live for me. I remember the first time i went to an online chat with just YAHOO…. and that was wierd. But i am open to new experiences and look forward to being a part of the WEB 2.0 community!
Yesterday in the Classroom 2.0 site, i found a group of folks that were all interested in WIKIS. One guy is trying to create an online WIKI class similar to the one I need to create for my Teach 21 teachers so it will be so much fun collaborating with others to see what needs to be included!!!
