I really learned a lot today. Do I say that every day. I really haven't explored all that Word has to offer. I knew about the highlighting piece but I love the box for notes. I can't wait to try the Bubbl site. I too think Inspiration is confusing and so do the kids.

I guess I never knew how bad I was at searching for information on the web. :) I'm using the techniques you are teaching regularly. Today, I taught a student how to identify the validity of a web site and if it actually gave him the information he was looking for. I am really enjoying this class.

Wiki is such a wonderful tool. I love how you can see who did what work. You are right...I hate that when you group students, there is always one that does the most or most of the work.

I have learned so much on how to search for information. Thanks for the tips.

I am so sorry I missed this class. I would love to have gotten instructions on how to use the Marvel database. Not sure about wiki??? It sounds from reading the blogs that some of the others felt Marvel was a little difficult to use but provided a wealth of information. I'm a little slow in the technology department but am eager to learn.

I shared the graphic organizer site with a fellow teacher....

I am learning a lot. Though I can't directly use some of the information, because I don't create lesson plans, I am happy to pass along the information. Also, as teachers begin using this process, I will be involved in helping my special education students learn to recognize how they learn, process information, and solve problems. They are so dependant on us.

Session 2

I love the graphic organizers! I'm always searching for good ones and voila....here they are.
