Tool # Dos

PLN are a great way for people to communicate...at UH we used them as a way to stay connected with other student teachers. Due to the fact that we were only on campus a few times our last semester, our PLN was very important. The society we live in today is always on the go....information that is mobile is key...

PLN are a great way for teams to communicate with one another especially when the comments left are meaningful and easy to respond...I guess the only problem with me at first was remembering to actually log on to the site that we all agreed to use. Once we all became comfortable with it, it became easy...

Tool # Uno

This is actually blog #2 for me. I had to create one for UH and if I was asked to find it now I am not sure I could. I do like blogs, its kinda like talking to yourself, or a journal...to sound less crazy, I only wish I actually had time, or better yet the discipline to sit and reflect on one.

Creating the avatar was cool, a little weird at first...I could not change the voice of my ~Hola Girl~ and so she had a dude's voice...like I said, weird!

I would really like to use blogging in my classroom, I feel as though the kiddos could use it as a form of self expression. Once they get past the creating (decorating), they could very well benefit from it. We could use it as a form of communication in the classroom between the students and me, where I could go back and post comments and answer questions.
