I am a member of Facebook, Twitter, Teacher POP, Pinterest and Classroom 2.0. I have really enjoyed exploring these online communities since they have really assisted me with so many endless ideas! I have really came across the most interesting lessons amongst these sites and I really intend using these sites as a future teacher. It's extremely becoming a member of an online community because there are so many potential lesson plans, unit plans and creative ideas for classroom management and disciplining. I highly recommend Pinterest for creative ideas and Classroom 2.0 for technological classroom ideas.
Are any of these social networks appealing to you?
Of the many that I explored, they are all appealing to me! I found myself going through each recommendation that Dr. Wall posted and I realized that I had been browsing these sites for over a couple of hours! I didn't become members of all of them (as that would be a lot of passwords and usernames to remember!) but hopefully I will be able to save them in my bookmarks to potentially use later on as a teacher. I feel that teachers are always looking to the internet or even online communities for advice, motivation, or even ideas. So to me, I would feel more reassured if I knew I was a part of a respectable online community.
What did you find that was interesting and that you might use later?
I really liked the Classroom 2.0 online community. I liked how it feels very informative and interactive. This site really engaged me the most and I feel like reading some of the posts that other members had posted really encouraged me. It's really nice to find that motivation in fellow peers, considering you are all potentially going through the same daily activities. I am also a huge fan of Pinterest and Facebook. Pinterest is especially great for finding creative gadgets to use with implementing lessons. There are great recommendations, ideas, instructions and directions that you can really use in the classroom. I am a big fan of this site and I know I will use it until I run out of ideas (which will be never!).
