Presenter: William Kist
From the technologically barren classroom to the completely equipped digital classroom, teachers in all kinds of settings are attempting to overcome barriers and are beginning to enter the Web 2.0 age. This webinar will provide participants with a baseline of description of what a truly "social networked" classroom can look like on a daily basis. Building on 12 years of research studying teachers nationally and internationally, William Kist has compiled an archive of groundbreaking teaching and learning practices that take advantage of these new media no matter the level of technology being used—from the one-room schoolhouse to the starship Enterprise. This web seminar will include many real-world examples. These include:
- Using Facebook to host literature circles and writing groups
- Using wikis to house reading/writing portfolios
- Using blogs as learning logs
