It seems the more I learn, the more overwhelmed I become! Wiki's, RSS, Blogs, etc. The list seems to be never-ending. I think the difficult part is to wade through all this technology and decide what YOU want to use and how you want to use it. I think students can benefit greatly from some of these new technologies, but it's up to the teacher to decide which ones are going to be beneficial.
As I read about Wiki's and RSS Feeds, I began to think about all the ways they could help in my classroom, specifically in a science classroom. I think using Wiki's as a resource for research for projects on animals or plants or having an RSS Feed on science news could be really helpful for my students. But these resources could also be confusing and to large scale for some of my students. Finding that fine line is going to be key.
