Got an innovative use of educational technology to share?
We hear and read a great deal about new tools and ideas which COULD be tried with students to expand and improve opportunities for learning. The focus of this group is on sharing ACTUAL classroom practices with educational technologies which have worked, failed, or been attempted with some improvement needed. Sir Ken Robinson says if we're never willing to be wrong, we can never do anything creative. This group is focused on sharing moments of instructional risk-taking using technology with students and teachers. Let's learn from and support each other in this process.

Greetings fellow educators
I have just begun working with, and introducing to my students, a wiki for classroom use. So far, we have used it to share personal interests and likes/dislikes re: math and science (the content which I teach). Today, we attempted to begin a page that will be shared with classroom newcomers regarding our VADOE-provided internet search engine, nettrekker.com.
The students, for the most part, are liking the new 'freedom' to post their thoughts and opinions on the wiki, and use their choice of fonts and background colors, etc.
Have any of you ever used a wiki in the classroom?

I decided not to apply this time, but next time I am going to plan to get my video done early enough to be viewed, critiqued and edited. Last time people saw some things that now I realize I should have edited, but I just didn't have time.

Thanks Janice! I have a different backstory than most teachers and felt that needed to be explained. Let's see what happens!
I think that this looks great also. I like the personal story. It seems like I know you and understand why you want to go.

Camilla, I agree with Cheryl - go see Serena Offcourse on Blackbear Island. She's great and knows all the ins and outs. She's got great style sense too! --Sarah (Syra Saeed in SL, edueyeview on twitter)
Give it a go!I am still falling down. Look for Serena Offcourse at Black Bear Island, she is my fashion consultant and very helpful.

I'm @edubeacon on Twitter. Your recent Seedlings podcast has me thinking of giving Second Life another go. On there I'm Millie Brink - on the brink and very much the amateur!
Thanks Alice! I appreciate the feedback. I will try adjusting the volume! Thanks again!

WOW! I love how you used your kids in the movie. The only thing I can suggest about the sound (I think you can do this in iMovie '08) is in the sound bar at the bottom, you can adjust the volume with a little line. If you drag the line up, it will...
Hi! I'm applying to be a Google Certified Teacher. I had seen some posting on here last year where other Google Certified Teachers gave comments on applicants' videos. I would love some feedback! Here's the link to my video: http://www.youtube.com...
