Alix’s Exploration of Learning Technologies

Below is a video that I watched as part of a lesson on social media. It explains web 2.0 simply but powerfully.

Although I have yet to incorporate the use of social media in my classroom, I would like to compile a list of social media that use personally:

1. facebook- to keep in touch with friends and family

2. google book marks and del.ico.us – to keep track of potential resources for school, teaching and life

3. RSS feeds – for teaching and personal interest

3. wiki and google docs – so far, justv for MET assignments

4. weblog – so far, just for MET purposes

5. Discussion forums – not much of a contributor, but a few that I follow

I am not much of a texter and have yet to “twitter”.
