Session 5: Web 2.0 Applications

This has been my favorite session so far. I had no idea that all of these applications existed. So many of them would be so helpful in the classroom, especially Quizlet, Backpack, and Delicious. I really enjoyed exploring Delicious and creating bookmarks. This is an application that I will definitely use as a teacher to find and share websites with other teachers. Depending on the grade I teach, I may also have my students use it.

I also really enjoyed the article "A Facebook Education." I did not necessarily agree with everything, but it gave me a new perspective on using social-networking sites in the classroom.
