Web+2.0

Here are some of Web 2.0 Tools to use with your students!
[|My blog] One of my favorites is: Story Jumper: StoryJumper is a website that allows students to build their own books. Users can easily create cover pages, add text, upload drawings or photos to illustrate their story, and can use the StoryJumper clipart gallery, too. When they finish, the stories can be viewed online or ordered as a professionally published hardback book! The site functions similarly to Picture Book Maker. It would be great for many young students to practice their writing skills. Here are some other lists of great Web 2.0 resources:

Amap: allows students to debate and argue different viewpoints. This tool can be used when studying rhetoric--the art of argumentation and discourse. Students can share their thoughts on a subject and debate. Live arguments are hosted from around the world and this would allow students to apply their knowledge of the canons of rhetoric.

SchoolTube: This is a fun website where student can watch fun child and school safe videos such as math raps, science experiments and world changers. Students can even provide feedback on videos and post their own videos.

OhLife:Oh Life is a very simple to use web tool that helps users create online diaries (or at least that was the intention). Oh Life sends an Email each day asking you what was going on and when you reply to the Email the response is cataloged by date as an entry in the digital diary site that is automatically set up for the user. Users can search by date or by content. This is a great way to get people blogging or journaling on a more constant basis. It could also be used for character studies for English class, a science experiment journal, or so many other things.
