[elearning] A Wikispaces blog with something for EVERYONE!

[Arnott, Suzanne S]

It is a great resource... thank for reposting... even though I also get the wikispaces emails... I tend to gloss over them at times :)
Perfect timing for me getting my head back into things after nearly a year off on sick leave :)
Cheers
Suz

Subject: [elearning] A Wikispaces blog with something for EVERYONE!

Hi

I have used Wikispaces with students and so get their monthly(?) newsletter.

This month's had a link to "Educational Origami is a blog, and a wiki, about 21st Century Learning and 21st Century Teaching."
http://edorigami.wikispaces.com/home

I think it would have something that just about ANY teacher could use! It's a pity I didn't find it at the START of the hols rather than 2 days into the grind!

I followed one link that mentioned MASHUPS (something I've never got my head around) and found a link to a FREE Intel project which allows users to create mashups on the fly.

It's near the bottom of: http://edorigami.wikispaces.com/WEB+2.0+Tools (a very useful resource)

"There are a variety of resources to help you and a plug in for your browser. This is worth a play.
Main page - http://mashmaker.intel.com/
Overview - http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/articles/eng/1461.htm
Video tutorials - http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/articles/eng/1505.htm "

If you want to find out more QUICKLY:
