Thing 22

Social networking has become a major force in the lives of our children. Sites like Facebook have become a key link for students to organize, connect, and communicate school and extra-curricular activites on a daily basis. Since networking has become an established way of life for our students,the use of a social networking site like Ning, would be a very comforable educational tool for them to use. Networks could be set up for classes, clubs, and special events.

Thing 21

I like Pageflakes as a personalized information gathering site. I'm sure that I will use it much more than my standard RSS feed. It could also work well as a technology resource page for my tech students or as a classroom resources page.
