Demo for CA Summit

What is a blog?

Online journal
1 to 1 feedback...
An essay expressing an opinion publicly
Blogs can be damaging... throwing up on the internet
Immediate comments/feedback...
Can be informative, how to, etc... 

What is the read/write web (web 2.0)?

You can interact with what you see... and others who do also
Literacy becomes more important

What do these technologies mean for you and your students?

Could be instead of a newsletter...
A forum to practice writing for the public...
Need to learn to use it constructively not just socially
And to effect change...
Ettiquette becomes an issue...
Digital lab reports
Positive Digital Footprint
You have to begin teaching these issues early..
We're not the only expert in the room...
