Great posts from around the Classroom

I have collected a variety of posts from your blogs so you can see bits and pieces of what your classmates are discovering and thinking. There is alot of great reading, writing, and commenting going on! Great job!

Many of you chose to read David Warlick's, "A Future Fiction" and had alot to say!
Mary and Jodi compared some of the ideas to the Marauders Map in Harry Potter. Tish holds out hope that there is a future like this sooner than we think while Heather looks a bit more pessimistically at the article. Lastly, Gypsy ventures into the area of web filters in the school as she reflects on this article.

Caroline discusses Will Richardson and a better understanding of RSS. She answers the question of "So what's the big deal with this guy? Ellen also read the article by Will Richardson and points out that you can be on the cutting edge of information with blogs and RSS.

Claudia points us to a nice video on why students should blog while Patricia Germano points us to a great video on wikis! Kelly brings us some humor with a subtitled video about a Help Desk.

Julie discussed the feeling most of us had after learning so much new content-How to Digest it all? Speaking of digestion, take a look at Rebecca's blog and a Lego creation found on Flickr.

As I reread Stacie's first post, I noticed she had six comments. One was from the author of one of the Web sites she linked to. How cool!

Nancy's blog incorporates some really cool videos and surveys into the sidebar. I am going to have to ask her about this!
