Technology Toolbox: Wiki's - On-line Collaborative Learning Made Easy?



January 10, 2008

One of the hottest topics in K-12 technology is the use of collaboration through online resources. A Wiki is a type of website that allows users to easily add, remove, or otherwise edit and change some available content, sometimes without the need for registration. Teachers will discuss the value of such a product and walk through the start of their very own online collaboration tool!

This session is provided by The Lorain County Distance Learning Consortium (LCDLC) in collaboration with Northern Ohio Research & Training Technology Hub (NORT²H) and is free to member schools and cost $50.00 for nonmember schools. Sign up with Paul Hieronymus at Phiero@leeca.org.

Technology Toolbox: Blogging - A Tool for Educators & Students

Hot Topic: Blogging – A tool for educators and students

Blogging is no longer for tech geeks or political activists. Blogs have stepped into the K-12 community with surprising vigor. Classroom teachers will take a look at publishing to the internet and how classroom teachers can use this resource to enhance their curricula and open their classroom to parents and their community.
