Learning Community

As I prepare for our presentation on Friday, I am pleased with my progress in using Web 2.0 tools. The whole presentation is in Google Docs, something I knew nothing about a year ago. The practice I've had with this project will enable me to widen my teaching repertoire, as well as using this tool to produce documents during the school year in collaboration with others. The students who will be participating, Shonti & Rose, are so literate about all of this, and it's so fun to watch their ease with all of these tools that are new to me. I have no doubt that they, and their classmates will be using Google docs and presentation, and learn with ease using Internet tools. The ripple effect of this project is immense.
