I had a great time this week searching through boatloads of web 2.0 tools. I ended up going off on many tangents for many hours but in the end I found some pretty cool stuff.
Out of the five sites that were recommended on our syllabus I liked the classtools.net and piclits. They had great resources and I could see using them in my classroom. I liked the idea of glogster.com but I think that it would need to have a separate education component before I would use it with my students. I felt that some of the images that were displayed on the home page were inappropriate for students to see.
I would still like to explore the xtimeline site. It was down when I tried to access it this weekend.
I also found a really neat website to share. It is basically just a blank canvas that you can use like the paint program found on most computers but it animates the painting after you have completed it. Your picture can be sent via e-mail or printed. I think that it would be a great way to incorporate art into the regular curriculum.
