Wiki + weblog = learning.This has so many applications outside of K-12 education it isn't even possible to list them all. Darren lights upon another great idea with the creation of wiki problem solving sites for his kids (and Clarence has picked up the ball as well.) As he puts it, his students are creating the textbook in their blogs, and now they can create supporting resources in the wiki. Read the thinking that he put behind how to structure and assess the work his students are doing. It’s pretty brilliant. [Weblogg-ed]2:54:35 PM |
Interactive podcasting?Well, more like interactive podcast production, but it extends the boundary beyond the producer and one or two commentators, to include the community. Waxxi is a New Kind of Podcast. I think Tracy Sheridan’s Waxxi is a great idea: a scheduled podcast where people can call in and participate (Frank Gruber has more). The kickoff podcast is with Naked Converstions authors Shel Israel and Robert Scoble, on May 20, 2006 at 10:30 AM PST. If you would like to participate, register on the Waxxi homepage and you will receive a toll free number to call and a participation code. I do not know if there is a limit on the number of participants. 2:51:18 PM |
