Hi Jenny,

Site looks great. I appreciate your adding my blog to your site and I will to yours off mine. The slide shows are a good source to get some ideas about the course - good to see you appealing to different types of learners - I'm really into the Multiple Intelligences, and find the possibilities of online learning environments fascinating for attempting to reach different learning styles. I'm afraid as a Linguistic / Word lover I always tend to rely on typing because it's what I'm good at. Thanks for the different direction.

Hi Jenny
Today I have been cross linking blogs and noticed I hadn't made a comment in your blog. I have enjoyed your clips (something I have yet to master inserting in my blog). Great work. cheers sue

Web 2.0

The picture diagrams are quite good in this slideshare. Gives an overview of potential and tools of web 2.0.

The aspect of teacher and different learners all interconnected in the last diagram is clever and is one of the powerful aspects of using social software and web 2.0 tools.

Would like to use this model not only in my classroom but also across schools. A challenge maybe in the Primary School environment. Have used email in the past however email is only one way communication. Like to use the web for real and purposeful conversational interaction between individuals or groups using a variety of tools encouraging communication and collaboration.

Social Software

Below is a slideshare on Social Software. The slide show was obviously part of a presentation.

Some points of interest "Everyone on the web has Schizophrenia"

What is the author referring to???? Can sort of understand his big statement though (inferring a touch of negativity and implications of web 2.0) You can be anything you want to be I guess. Need to be socially responsible when online etc etc ...... and continue to encourage postive use with the children we teach.
