#6 I fed my reader, how overwhelming!

Wow! Where to start. The amount of information that you can gather by "feeding you reader" can be overwhelming even if you skim read. I could literally spend hours just skimming these awesome blogs. I began with a spot for the 50 year celebration of Sputnik since I am a space nut. I really do think this is 51 today, but I digress. There is a man who claims to have pieces of Sputnik which fell out of orbit and landed in the back yard. He tried to turn them in, but the air force gave them back, and he buried them under the house. Who would have thought?

Then for the most amazing techno/educational thing I saw was about a teacher who was trying to do great things for the students and move them into the 21st century but he was locked out by his district, and could no longer have access to his laptop. Another person comments on the same blog that they had been waiting 2 weeks for software so that he could put his class images on the system. I know that parts of this have been frustrating for me with this class also. I have just decided to do all my blogging for 2.0-23 at home. I don't have to override that way.

I believe one of the most informational blogs was one which gave guidelines for students and teachers using U-Tube clips in presentations. Sometimes it is just hard to get my head around "fair use".

By far, the most fun or funnest (so glad we are not graded on perfect grammar and spelling) thing that I have seen, is one that I our saw on one of our fellow classmate's blogs. Steering me toward wordle. It is great! I have a science one on my blog.
