Group 3

Wordle contest - see blog at [|http://marylousbookblog.blogspot.com]

teaching grandparents about Facebook - making them one of their friends - must be pre-approved - students are keeping their pages "clean" good for the future, adults, job prospects

wikispace practicing with students - maybe take it to another level with creating an article in wikipedia

creating google doc accounts with grade 7s is an adventure! - use it for group notes on class material so everyone has the same without spelling, attention problems

__The Networked Student__

Another skill they need is to be able to evaluate the information - is it good? is it garbage? They also need to validate the website - is it real or is it another tree octopus? use tools like REAL to assist - see Oct. meeting

Changes for the teacher involve being more of a facilitator rather than a lecturer; manager of technology; responsibile to be learners on a continual basis; moderator skills
