Group Definitions from Richardson

  • Blogs can look like websites.
  • Blogs are a bit more clunky than GooDocs in responding to threads and communicating with each other.
  • Wiki platforms are:
  • PB Wiki = educators
  • Seedwiki
  • Wikispaces
  • RSS Feeds can be good for research (RSS = "really simple syndication")
  • Feeds can be focused (got purple from Anne)
  • Feeds can help us keep track of friends' blogs
  • RSS Feeds can help us keep track of all of our online communities
  • Social Bookmarking: Delicious can be cumbersome
  • SB can be helpful for saving research results
  • Podcasts are audio clips that can be accessed online
  • Podcasting allows us to share in-class products with those outside the classroom
  • NPR has lots of very great stuff
