I attended a great workshop yesterday at GaETC. Vicki Davis presented Easy and Engaging Teaching using Wiki Pages. I got lots of good ideas for possible use with my students. It is nice to meet face-to-face with those educators whose blogs you read. Those connections are the best! The group in the workshop yesterday ranged from total novice to seasoned wiki users. I think all left excited to incorporate wikis in their classrooms. One part I loved was that Vicki’s students kept Skyping her during the session. These great Web 2.0 tools keep us in touch. Vicki shared how she used Skype for quick question and answer sessions during the day with her students.
Will will be here tomorrow. I look forward to seeing him again! I’m off to another session!
I was humbled and appreciative of your attendance and involvement. Three hours seemed to fly by, didn’t it?
You are as impressive in real life as on your blog. I hope to get by and interview you tomorrow. (Well almost today since it is 11:45 — and my husband said to catch up on my sleep — Ha, I’m too excited to sleep!)
I hope to see you tomorrow!
Web 2.0 is very rich and interactive. Using it for educational purpose will solve plenty of issues and at least students will now start to focus more on study due to this richness of internet.
