Web 2.0 tools sites

One of your assignments this week is to review three "new tools for teaching." Your content page gives you two links and I have a good third choice for you:

TeachWeb2.0 is the one with the annotations regarding the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats of each tool and has some great info.

Go2Web20 has category tags to help you find an appropriate tool.

DiscoverySchools (which is a great website anyway) has another very teacher-friendly Web 2.0 tool kit - it's considerably smaller and organized very logically.

And for Assignment 4, here is an excellent article about integrating technology - BONUS! It's short and includes concrete examples. Read "Replace Completion with Creation" and you might get some good ideas for your assignment.

So, what did you decide today? Do you have many of the 21st Century Fluencies? Where are your strengths and weaknesses?

AND ONE MORE THING - did you think of any additional uses for that broken computer monitor?
