Web 2.0 School Home

mbachrodt — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 19:11:35 CDT

Web 2.0 School is your resource for tools that will help you create a course that promotes student independence and autonomy, greater collaboration and increased student learning. You will also find tools that will help you to become better organized and more efficient as a teacher.

Web 2.0 has many definitions but we like to think of Web 2.0 tools as simply any web site that allows anytime, anywhere access to the stuff you need that has the option of being shared with others.

Web 2.0 tools are not a fad and they won't go away. They are being used by teachers, students and businesses every day. The list of Web 2.0 tools continues to grow. We look at this list and get scared. How can we possibly keep up? We can't. What we can do, though, is pick a few tools and really try to see how they could be and are being used in the classroom. I can choose to be a mover and a shaker by using Web 2.0 tools with my students or I can choose to be moved and shaken by them.

Wikipaedia defines Web 2.0 as an idea in the head rather than a new form of the internet. Regardless of the definition, it cannot be denied that these tools share one common feature; the ability to share information. 21st Century learning is all about collaboration and the skills necessary for functioning in a 21st Century world can be taught using Web 2.0 tools.

RSS

mbachrodt — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 08:02:54 CDT

What is RSS?

RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication."

This is a special format for delivering and gathering content (RSS feeds) from websites such as CNN, MSN, ESPN, blogs, etc. A rather nice and entertaining introduction to RSS can be found at http://www.commoncraft.com/rss_plain_english. (Note, when viewing this from within D211, be sure to have YouTube already open or the video will not play. This may be due to websense filtering.)

Aggregators

Aggregators are web sites that you use to receive the RSS feeds. iGoogle, Google Reader, Netvibes, Bloglines, Newsgator, and PageFlakes are just a few of the many aggregators that allow you to put all of your RSS feeds in one place. In effect, the web comes to you, you don't go to it.

Below is the News Element from Google.

Here is another example of a feed one might see if an aggregator is setup to receive news from Yahoo (this is a live feed!):

Please see http://il-tce2008.wikispaces.com/RSS for a wiki summary on an RSS workshop presented at the ICE Conference in February of 2008.

Wikis

mbachrodt — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 15:15:23 CDT

A wiki should be used when you want to create a web presence that allows users to add to and edit existing information. A wiki is continuously changing. You can lock a page from being changed, though, should you want it to be used for special instructions such as assignments you don't want to be edited!

Let's Take a Tour! (Well worth the time!) http://www.teachersfirst.com/content/wiki/

Blog vs. Wiki
A wiki allows for much more open structure and allows original text to be changed. Blogs are typically structured in a "post, comment, comment" manner without the ability to edit the original post.

How can wikis be used in the classroom?

11 Great Ways to Use Wiki's in the Classroom: http://richlambert.edublogs.org/2009/05/06/11-ways-to-use-wikis-in-your-classroom/
Group projects: Students work together in one place to research, outline, draft, and edit projects within the wiki

Assignments: Post homework, course materials, study guides, and more.

Resource Collections: Organize articles, websites, videos, and other resources for students

Peer Review: Post questions for student brainstorming, or have students post papers for peer feedback.
Group FAQ: Students and/or teachers post and respond to questions on a given topic

Parent Involvement: Give parents a chance to be a part of the classroom and stay up to date on classroom news and events

Online Newspaper: Create a student-published online newspaper
>>Evolving study guide for your course created by students! See an example: http://apcalc06.pbwiki.com/

Other Ideas:
Post ALL of unit CALENDARS and make IMMEDIATE changes if necessary.
Posting prompts for the students to answer in threads for homework (discussions and debates work well here),
Post PowerPoint files · Post worksheets, · Add links to updated news videos that are used in class,
Add class syllabus and information,
Each student can have an account - Students can easily find each other and ask each other questions in personal messages, or send one to the instructor. · Students can have the capability to edit pages by adding pictures and text.
A complete history of each edit is made so the instructor knows what kids are making what changes (with a timestamp).

Here are some examples of classroom wikis and sites that will help you better understand how wikis can be used in education. Add other sites you find worthy of viewing!

Digital Notebooks

msmarshmole — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 13:32:11 CDT

www.zoho.com
Zoho Notebook is a powerful digital notebook. Think of it as a digital three-ring binder that you can put ANY information, resource, tool (live or static) into. You can then collaborate with other on it, or share the entire notebook, a page, or even an object with anyone! You can even publish it for the world to see. Here are a couple of examples from notes that I took during a conference sessions at IL-TCE 2008. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 (Example 3 shows quite a bit of the capabilities of Zoho Notebook).

It is clean, bright, and very effecting in its abilities to collect, organize, and SHARE information. Click on the thumbnail to the right and you can see some of its capabilities highlighted. It is easy to embed video from TeacherTube, Google, Yahoo (I struggled with video from YouTube though…) and even create a webcam video right on the fly. Audio recordings can be added as well with the same on the fly recording capability. Heck, you can even embed whole LIVE websites. If you utilize the other Zoho suite of products you can even embed and UPDATE written documents (Zoho Writer) and spreadsheets (Zoho Calc). When you save the notebook, these apps get updated as well! Impressive.

Zoho Office Suite - Zoho.com is my choice for office productivity in "the cloud." The folks at Zoho have created a HUGE suite of applications that well… all work! Writing, Spreadsheet, Presentations, wikis, project management, databases, an online NOTEBOOK and much more. The biggest reason that I really am taken with Zoho is both the integration of their tool set as well as their focus on collaboration. Additionally, they are continuously expanding their offerings. Did I mention that all of their apps are FREE! More information on Zoho here http://snipurl.com/2nflb

Evernote allows you to easily capture information in any environment using whatever device or platform you find most convenient, and makes this information accessible andsearchable at any time, from anywhere. Did we mention that it's free? Capture what you like, find it when you want Stop forgetting things. Capture everything now so you will be able to find it all later. Things to capture:

Tasks and to-dos
Notes and research
Web pages
Whiteboards
Business cards
Scribbles
Snapshots
Wine labels
Even Twitter messages

And then find them all any time across all the computers and devices you use.

Organization Tools

msmarshmole — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 13:24:54 CDT

It's all about organization... well isn't it? There is a proverb "A place for everything and everything in its place..." Day 1 is all about the various ways that you can get your arms wrapped around information, the flow of information, searching for information, and hopefully getting away from hunting for information and having it come to you.

Here is a bit of information about some of the concepts that we will be discussing during Day 1 and some of the tools that we will be highlighting:

Working "In the Cloud": This term typically means that the resources you typically use on a PC you can access online at any time any where through a web browser. Zoho - Zoho is a company that is making tremendous strides to bring the desktop experience to the web. They have an entire "suite" of office productivity tools that you can leverage to do everything from word processing and spreadsheets to create and share a digital notebook, online databases and applications, collaborative wikis, and much... much... more. We will be highlighting (and requiring) Zoho Notebook for you to take (and hopefully share) online digital notes of this class.

Digital Notebooks We all face a personal challenge any time that we interact with large amounts of information... How do we gather the information, catalog it, organize it, and store it for fast access, recall, and manipulation. Digital Notebooks can provide students, teachers, and administrators the way to overcome this challenge successfully. Develop a familiarity with four of the major digital notebook applications: Zoho Notebook, and Evernote. (We'll touch on Microsoft OneNote).

Information Control
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a tremendous way to simplify your processes in searching and gathering information. In short, once a "feed" is setup, information comes to you as opposed to you hunting for it. My choice of RSS Reader is NewsGator. With NewsGator is pull in news stories from around the world as well as educational and instructional blogs. Additionally, most magazine type services (and all search engines) have RSS feeds embeded into their sites that you can tap into. This type is resource allows you to become a "grazer" of information as opposed to a hunter of information. One of my main criteria for an RSS aggregator was that it would function both online and via a mobile device. The majority of time I access NewsGator through my Motorola Q Global via NewsGator Go!. Additionally, NewsGator allows me to "Clip" a post or piece of information that I find valuable and save it permanently. More information on RSS here: http://snipurl.com/2nflb and here: http://snipurl.com/2nfny

Bookmarking
The idea of social bookmarking is not new (we have all shared bookmarks and links with friends in the paper world… Preferably a bookmarking tool that has a social aspect to it where you can share the websites and information you have found with others and you can benefit from research others have one on topics in which YOU are interested.

First a couple of definitions:

Bookmarking - This is the process of saving "links" to websites and research so you can return to them easily at a future date.
Bookmarking - This is the same as saving "Links", "favorites", "websites" etc.
Social Bookmarking - This refers to groups of people "Sharing" their bookmarks through an online service. Often this "sharing" also includes comments or additional information about the site which will help others by providing more details about what can be found on the site, the capabilities of the site, or usage information.

Search , Advanced Search and Much Much more...
We have all heard of the 900lb gorilla Google, and all of our students and well us as well uses Google in its primary role as a search engine. But there is so much more. Did you know that you can explore the earth (the the sky for that matter). Did you know that you can search groups of experts for advice and information? Did you know the you couple take your documents, spreadsheets, and powerpoints online? Did you know that you could search scholarly journals? Did you know that you could do 3D modeling and then overlay that information onto the world? We will be opening our eyes to a world of Google that has been under our noses the whole time!

Online Storage on YOUR terms...
We are all familiar with moving files online so that people can access them... your students can access them... anyone can access them... Do we always want that? Let's look at taking control of your online documents with drop.io

Day One - First Blog Entry
What are your Technology Fears?
Too much, too fast, and wasting time doing that which I will not use eventually after finding it to be less than useful for my purpose(s).
Oh, and slow internet connections. And crashes. And copyright issues.

What are your expectations for this class, and what do you really want to take back to your classrooms?
maybe start liking the notion of a wiki

Twitter

mbachrodt — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 08:59:52 CDT

Twitter has been called a microblog, “your life in 140 characters or less,” confusing, addicting, and hard to describe.

"A PLN using twitter gives you a place not only to begin to learn, but to ask question and seek help, advice, support, ideas, resources, and it is just down right fun! As your professional relationships grow so will your personal ones as well."

The basic gist of twitter is that you “follow” people and you have “followers.” Often those groups consist of the same people, but they do not have to be… When you follow someone, it enables you to receive the 140 character messages that they post to their group of followers. There are times that you feel like you are only getting half the conversation as the people you are following are following folks that you are not. Therefore, you get a reply to a question, but you do not know what the question was that sparked the reply… [This is often where twitter gets labeled as confusing.] However, if you are really interested in learning that other part of the conversation or you see a number of people you are following reply to the same person, you might want to take a couple of clicks and add that person to your network as well. More information on Twitter can be found here: http://snipurl.com/2ng33

Ning

nlabeau — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:41:53 CDT

Teachers are beginning to explore Ning as a potential replacement for their classroom web site and/or blog. Teachers can

post assingments
post handouts including PowerPoint presentations
upload videos, photos and music
create groups for special classroom interests
receive and respond to questions from students
begin discussion forums
add widgets that extend the functionality of the Ning. A popular widget is one that displays a teacher's Delicious bookmarks.
use the blog feature instead of another blog provider (one less place for students to have to go!)

Each member of the Ning has their own page or space where they include information about themselves as well as many of the same things teachers can do as liisted above.

The best way to learn about the structure of a classroom Ning is to explore one that has been used very successfuly this school year. Fremd teacher Nicole LaBeau has created a classroom Ning. You can visit her site at http://my1englishclass.ning.com/ but will only be allowed to see the main page. You will need to use the following information to see the rest of her site. Nicole asks that you refrain from adding any comments, photos, etc.

Blogs

nlabeau — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:17:33 CDT

A blog is a unique web site that consists of entries, or posts, which are usually arranged in reverse chronological order. Posts are typically a short paragraph of text that may include a link, photo, or embedded video. Many blogs allow the reader to leave a comment about a post in order to encourage online discussions where people can participate at their leisure.

Below are some resources about blogging that we find serve as motivators to help us brainstorm ways to use blogs in the classroom.

A wiki on Blogging! http://il-tce2008.wikispaces.com/Blogging

Suggestions (Add your ideas!)

Read lots of blogs to get a feel for how to blog and how other educators are using blogs. You will most likely find you do not have the time to read everything every day. So...
Use an RSS feeder to bring blogs to you! (e.g., www.bloglines.com)
Have a student be a scribe everyday to record daily work. (expertvoices.blogspot.com) Post a comment and respond about this process on our blog.
Blog as a certain person in history and have other students ask questions.
Create a podcast and post that to the blog and have students comment.
Create a challenge page for bloggers, e.g., math problem challenge
Have students use your blog but have them bring in other information with links to these sources.
What are your management rules? You have to make decisions on this. Perhaps it is good to get students to help establish the rules!
Provide specific instructions as to how to do things. Check this out for an example of this portal. http://ci212-06.21classes.com
Try labeling the blog posts if you want to keep track of how many students are posting, i.e., have students label their posts as numbers.

There are five major topics that we are going to be covering in this unit. Each will have its own page so you can post questions and discuss answers to different homework assignments and lab reports. The five main topics are:

1. Biological Molecules
2. Dehydration Synthesis
3. Cellular Respiration
4. Protein Structure
5. Enzymes

Day One - First Blog Entry
What are your Technology Fears?

Falling behind! I like to think that I'm pretty technology-literate, but I know my students will always be one step ahead when it comes to technology like I once was.
Making sure I use technology in creative, engaging, but most importantly, educationally sound ways. For me, it seems too easy to get caught in the excitement of a new tool, but it should support what we are doing in class.

What are your expectations for this class, and what do you really want to take back to your classrooms?

I hope to find great ways to not only integrate technology in the classroom, but in finding ways for my students to use technology in order to understand more about what we talk about in class. When it comes to making music, a lot of emphasis gets placed on the final performance of any particular piece. What gets lost is the process and journey of getting music, learning it, and finally performing it! Also, I'm hoping to find an organized, eye-pleasing way to get information out to parents and students.
