Beth Ritter-Guth :: Weblog :: The World of Wikis, Blogs, and Podcasts in Education

December 02, 2006

http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Proftitutes/~3/81572130/world-of-wik I have been out for a bit, and so I am catching up on my Bloglines (whew...I am very far behind....). I decided to try to post by category, and I am starting with educational technology first.

Here is a list of the best of the best:

1. At 21st Century Collaborative, there is an excellent post on working with the homeless. As this is an interest of mine, as well, I enjoyed her podcast. Please check it out.

2. The K-12 Online Conference happened whilst I was out, but I have been exploring their wiki and site. There are some really nice podcasts on the site, so check it out (even if you teach at the college level; a lot is about teaching with technology and is, certainly, applicable to those of us in the 13+ system).

3. Over at 21st Century Educator, there is a post that mentions a free PDF booklet titled "Coming of Age: An Introduction to the NEW world wide web." It is a really nice booklet; I will be passing out copies at our adjunct convocation in January. Well done!

4. Over at Around the Corner, Miguel has a whole host of really good posts. I just love his blog. I picked two favorites to post about. The first favorite talks about grading writing and links over to the NCTE's standards. The second post talks about a very cool "Open Source Gift Guide."

5. My buddy, Jean-Claude Bradley, has a really nice post about open resources for teaching chemistry (Co-Op). I would like to see this in all academic disciplines. He also has a post about a wiki talk delivered by Stewart Mader at Drexel.

That is all I can get through tonight. Tomorrow is another day :-)
