Today had a lot of different features to it when working with technology. We had a really nice discussion around Prensky’s article, it was hard not to do any bashing of the powers-that-be. Out of that discussion was the topic Second Life. I’ve only just started looking around but from I’ve been exposed to this has some serious impacts on education. We may be looking at the future so people may really want to get on the train and go for the ride.
People may not believe it right now but RSS will be a huge time saver if people stick with it. I easily would loose an hour of the day before checking up on websites before I use bloglines. Now I’m able to go to one place and find out what’s new and save what I really want to read for later in the day. Teachers can use this service in providing current event articles for students who may not know where to start. I’m sure people will come up with other uses as well.
Bob,thanks for showing the clippings feature. I hadn’t played with it before but now I see a few usages for it. Messing around I don’t know if I would have used it and these kinds of moments is what professional development is all about.
Keep your chin up Alice, you made it through lunch
now on to del.icio.us.
