This is diffidently just the beginning. I am excited about many of the tools we used during the course of the 23 things and I cannot wait to put many of them to use. My overall experience with this was a good one. I understand why they were placed on here and how they can be beneficial. What I have learned here will influence my teaching because I am more knowledgeable on tools that would be very useful in the classroom. The experience can be a joyous one as long as you have the right materials. By participating in this, I do believe I now have enough material to get me started. I plan on keeping up with whats current by following different blogs, adding resourcefulness sites to my RSS Feeds.
From here I definitely want to continue my blog. The hardest part would be coming everyday and posting something resourceful or informational. Right now, I just do not have the time to but replacing it with my classroom blog is a great idea.
I really enjoyed this!!!!

Thing 23
As a teacher, I would use creative commons to inform students of the importance of crediting others for there work. Creative commons was created so that other could use them without asking. SO creative commons will be taught in the classroom and stressed. I will inform the students to look for the double cc's when looking for any information and help coach them where they should look.
Thing 22
Have not been able to finish my livebinder, but I like this much better than the bookmarking sites. Like she stated in the video, this would be very useful when informing parent about whats going on in the classroom. The parents will have access to everything the teacher post or place in the binder. It is a good way in keeping the different websites organized and handy when needed. This is an excellent tool to have and use in the classroom. When I do complete my livebinder, I will be sure to update my post.

Well I cannot say that I had a good nor bad experience with Animoto because I haven't had the opportunity to start it. But I will do it and when I do, I will make an update of this post. It seem really interesting though. This is something I would want to do for my own kids. They would love to see themselves in videos like these. But it could be also used in the classroom. It could be made up of pictures taken over the course of the school year and at the end play it back and take a stroll down memory lane.

Thing 20
I'm Just a Bill (Schoolhouse Rock!)
When I was observing in a 5th grade classroom, they were discussing bills and how they become laws. The teacher said she had played a song for the kids, but when I was in school, I remember watching this. I asked her if they still used schoolhouse rock and she said occasional This was very creative stuff to me and i still remember them all. I plan on using this in my classroom!!! I love YouTube and definitely plan on using it in my classroom.
Thing 19
I am a pending member of pop teacher but I am waiting on the approval. I checked out the tasty kitchen community and that seems interested to me. I love cooking and eating, so I am always looking for something new to try out or fix. I think a community such as this one will keep me from getting things done but I am thinking about joining it. I plan on making my own wedding cake, so I am looking for new ideas.
Thing 18
My Facebook Page
It is important that educators know how social networking works, because it is public and can be misused. Because it is public, the educator must be mindful of the post they make on the social networking sites. Also its important for educators to how they work because if students are going to be using them in the classroom, they need to be aware and knowledge about what to do in worse case scenarios. I really have gain any new insights about these sights. They have been around for awhile now and are being using in many different aspects which can be very beneficial. But once again, one must be mindful of the post they make on these sights. It could cause them their jobs. I really do not know which site has the most useful features. To me it would be Facebook because everything I need it has and I am not a huge fan of tweeting. I'm not that well at paraphrasing my thought. I write everything out so me and tweeter do not get alone that well. But I do have an account that I have not been on in ages. I could definitely see a classroom and or school application on any of these sites being set up. It is a great way to keep everyone informed about what is going on.
