June 19 Final Post

This has been a great 3 days! I have learned a lot of technology that I didn't expect.

This afternoon we learned about Podcasts, and I found a great Educational Podcast Directory, which I can use in my classroom to help teach lessons.

Previously, I had written about using a math problem in a Wiki account for students to work on by adding steps to solving the problem.

Flickr is great for sharing photos with friends and family. RSS gives me a chance to access publications that I have been wanting to access but didn't have a way.

I is nice to finally know what a blog is and to have one of my own.

I have really enjoyed this class and have gained much from it.

June 19 Web20 Sesson 3

This morning we learned how to set up a Wiki account. I posted a page on my Wiki account with a math problem, which each participant could add a step to solving the problem. It could be helpful in teaching the solving of systems of equations.

I forgot to add an image. This is my wife, Miriam, my brother, Guy and myself at a Georgia Tech football game in Atlanta, Ga. :

June 18 Final Post

This afternoon we learned all about Flickr. I found that my nephew, who lives in London and my son who lives in Pennsyvania showed up as contacts with lots of pictures. I have now contacted them and added my pictures. One of the pictures I added is posted here.

An interesting web site I came across today was for the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

RSS

RSS is great! I have been wanting to read the sports pages of my hometown, Atlanta, Ga for some time, as that is the site of my college, Georgia Tech. Now I can. Also, now I don't have to have a subscription to the Wall Street Journal to get the latest business news.

Math Games

Here is a great math games site which can be used as a lesson to teach multiplication.

Web20 June 18, 2009

I am slowly catching on in this Web20 class. I really like the Del.licious account. I have a lot of math web sites I go to for lessons for my classes, and it is nice to have an organized method of pulling them up.

I have heard about Blogs for some time. It is good to know now what one is, and to have one of my own.
