Thing # 23

My favorite exercises were the mashups and photostory. They were both interesting and fun. I believe my students will really enjoy using any of the two to create projects aligned with our lessons.

This program has made me more knowledgeable on whats available in cyberspace and possible uses with my students and personal life. I will definitely incorporate more technology and all new ideas this coming school year.

I was surprised it took more than 23 hours to get it done. :) I enjoyed the majority of the task especially the ones that required more than just typing your thoughts on a particular subject.

While I enjoyed this project I felt more accomplish when I created something to show at the end of each discovery. I would love to see more exercises that would require you to create something but at the same time shorten the number of activities so each discovery could be completed in timely manner. Regardless on whether changes are made on this or other similar discoveries, I would definitely participate again. I received more than I bargained for from 23 Things!

  3. You blog is very attactive and professional looking. How does it feel to be finished?

    I have looked at many blogs and those that are finished look quite a bit different then those of us who are just in the middle.

  4. Wow, your comments have been great to read. It would be nice to be able to spend more time on each activity and have less to "weed" through but that is the only way we can see the magnitude of what is available. Now go forth to the classroom and use your favorite 2.0 tools. Next year you can work on 11 1/2 things which let's you learn just the way you wished for...slower and more concentrated. Great job now get some rest before school starts again!

  5. Oh, I so agree how it is much better I feel when I create something as opposed to just making comments. I also spent way more than 23 hours on 23 things....which I only get 18 hours of credit.....hmmmmm?
