Classroom 2.0

I have been bouncing around this site for a couple of months now and although the breadth of participation is a little low, the quality of the posts is very high. So if you are looking to connect with some other teachers who are really dedicated to connecting with others, this might just be a home for you. The tools at the site are great for the classroom. It allows for closed and controlled social bookmarking and wikis and blogs.
Recently Ian posted about a great tool called Sketchcaster. It is worth looking into if you do presentations or teach pieces. There was also a great link to a blog posting about a school use of Twitter-like application which has been getting a lot of attention over the past 3 or 4 months.
I would say well worth your time to at least hop over there a little.
Happy exploring,
J:)
