Although I do forsee practical applications for “educators and social networking”, at this point the social side of it escapes me. In viewing the Classroom 2.0 site, I did find several subject areas of discussion tagged for interest, particularly for geography and in the Ning-based, The Global Education Collaborative looked interesting. It’s a good thing we are only skimming at this point, because of all the Web 2.0 sites we have visited the “Social Networking” themed ones seemed to have more connections than the others. It was really overwhelming at this point, but perhaps that is also a reflection of being at the end of ‘23 Things” and ready to move on. I included the “Thumbs Up” as a shout-out to Creative Commons, because with their support, instruction, and reflection each task seemed easier to take in.

I also felt a bit overwhelmed with the Ning activity!
At this point in the course I’ve taken in so much, I know it’s time for a vacation just to digest it all
I really wish we were about to take a summer break — I have so many ideas but little time to plan for spring implementation!
