Teaching Tip - Using Wikis (and Google Docs) in Online and Face-to-Face Classrooms

The Pre-Wiki Time Period...

Readers,


I hope all of you are having a wonderful morning! Over the summer, I have been reading different blogs and tweets related to technology and teaching undergraduate students. I have been writing several of these ideas for the fall semester in my Levenger notebook (a really neat organizational tool).


Here's a wiki focused on wikis in higher education! - https://sites.google.com/site/wikisinhighered/


Recently, I discovered an older blog post related to wikis and their use in the educational setting (K-12 and higher education). This post from 2008 is still relevant in 2011 and it has some great ideas for education professionals! 


My favorite tips from the list:


1. Student Portfolios


2. Fan Clubs


3. Literature Circles


4. Classroom FAQ


5. Make Website Creation Easier for Stuents


Here's the link to the list - 50 Ways to Use Wikis for a More Collaborative and Interactive Classroom

Wandering Wednesday - Jane's Pick of the Day

Readers,

Welcome to this week's Wandering Wednesday! I am excited about this week's website, Jane's E-Learning Pick of the Day, because I have been following Jane for the past two years! She is simply amazing! Everyday she posts an informative educational technology link on her website (which is linked to Twitter and Facebook).

One of her recent blog series have been the daily Twitter Digests and the monthly reviews. In addition, some of the posts are very specific, such as the 30 ways to use SoMe to work and learn smarter post.


Here's Jane Hart's contact information and links to her social networking profiles. :) She is amazing!
