Life happens while you were making other plans. Seasons come and go, and the world keeps spinning. There are things which you can change, while others are completely out of your reach.

Ning, wikis, changes to blog, and glogster
I knew I had forgotten something, and that was to invite others to my ning network. I remember starting to do this in class, but I don't remember why I didn't complete it. I added some more bookmarks to delicious, and retrieved some for my blog. I'm really amazed at all of the information and resources there are on classroom 2.0. I could get lost there. I looked up information on wikispaces, and I came across this link in the Forum section: http://gmiller.wikispaces.com/Wiki%27s. There was so much information, and this was just a small part of this forum on wikispaces. Initially, I had watched the tutorial from http://www.wikispaces.com/site/tour to reinforce information I might have missed in class. Apparently, our school district will be putting the teacher web pages on wikispaces some time next school year. I revamped my "Useful Links" page, embedding links in text. I took another look at www.glogster.com , and noticed something I hadn' t before. I could have my students make glogs without having to create a gmail account, which I'm not sure if they'd be allowed to do.
