DPS Technology Challenge - 5

I have used Wikipedia and have found inaccuracies while I was teaching as I compared information in Wikipedia with what is in the encyclopedia. Per this Technology Challenge, I took the opportunity to explore different subjects of interest and I did not realize how easy to add information. In the future I would like to add information concerning the Black Mongols of China. I found information about the Mongol Empire yet it is not what I would like to stress concerning its dynamic group.



I think this would be a great wiki to develop for educational purposes. I enjoyed working with Pbworks and Wikispaces. Like Wikipedia, I find this a wonderful way to communicate and collaborate with others. This tool is only as powerful as the involvement of the learning community contributing to the site. I am always eager to learn about other valuable technology tools to share with other educators.

Here are a copy of wikis that I have created and developing:

I love Google Docs. I have had my elementary students creating slide show from the presentation mode in Google Docs and uploading their presentation into VoiceThread. Recently, I created an evaluation form of a Google Application, Part I presentation we did with the staff.
