[] is a web site that lets children make their own graphs. Added by Olivia Lee Sheffield.

This is my beginning wiki. I have plans to edit it later. It includes some links like the one above..Contributed by Olivia Sheffield https://alcosmediawiki.wikispaces.com/

Following sites by Jennifer H. [] This website has lists of web [|resources] by category (online art tools, social networking, podcasting, audiobooks, etc.) [] I love, love, love this site. It has maps of the continents with online newspapers linked to their geographical location. Click on a dot and a window opens displaying the front page of that paper in its original language. Links allow you to print the page, go to a readable PDF, or go to the website to read more. Interesting for FL classes, but also to see international English papers and note how newsworthiness changes country by country. http://jenniferbarnett.wikispaces.com/My+Web+Wardrobee This site offers a plethera of 2.0 tools, but has them categorized by their function/usefulness to our eLives (basic must-haves, attention getters, that once a year item, etc.) [] Comic life may be kin to clip-art, but at least its the exotic second cousin. A friend of mine has used this with her Spanish classes and the students created great storyboards, etc. [] I haven't had the time to really peruse this site to its fullest, but I like the premise: students teaching students to use 2.0 tools for learning. A lot of emphasis on personal online responsability.

Posted by Libby Thinking (and reading) about Wikis this week, I used Google to find a nice PowerPoint on Wikipedia [|www.palisadessd.org/606342315154648/lib/606342315154648/WikipediaWise.ppt] Post script: Today there was an Elluminate webinar on blogs. (It will be archived on ALEX and I’ll get you that link next week.) The presenter’s blog is at [|www.mrswillsblog.blogspot.com] Embedded video, audio, Skype, the works, and her presentation today was a show and tell on how to do it all.
