Great Job kiddos
I had a great experience working with my kids yesterday. Yesterday we were able to sign up for accounts, begin the experience, trouble shoot, and the students started on the WS, completed the WS while in different rooms. At first the students struggled with the method of how to converse over twitter. They tried to all talk at once and got lost in the conversation. I stepped in and suggested that they take turns on tweeting to each other. They did, and started to really share. The one thing I noticed was they were pretty much just sharing the answers over twitter. I worried about how well they would understand the material, and look forward to finding out. Yesterday when they left they had about 3/4 the WS done and should finish shortly after that. I am excited to see how they did, and to talk to each of them about the experience. They should be coming in shortly so I will check in after our conversation.

Cassidy,
ReplyDeleteI think it's wonderful that you are using Twitter. Do you have any hesitation about using the Web 2.0 technology in your classroom?

No, as I have said for years we need to teach the students to be prepared for the real world, and web 2.0 is part of that world.
