TimeToast

I didn't think this tool was the most user-friendly, but I do like the idea of having a self- created timeline. A really good project idea!

I wish I used this more often. It's a great idea! The main reason I don't use it more often is because I've really gotten into google chrome, and it saves all your bookmarks, settings, etc in the browser. The main advantage this has over the other one is the social aspect- which would be more useful if a had a group to utilize it with.

Just a coincidence, but I did the I Have a Dream Speech!

I really liked this tool,  and I will definitely use it in my future classrooms. It's such a fun way to decorate websites, study guides, the syllabus, or just about anything!

GLOGSTERRRRRR

My Web 2.0 tool to present is Glogster. My partner and I have been really utilizing google docs in collaborating on this project. There were a lot of examples on the website on what sort of projects Glogster could be used for.
     One of the things I'm still working through is the customizability of Glogster. I'm hoping to find out if I can add my own backgrounds and themes.  Where I can put the text boxes isn't also as free. So far, I think I would use Glogster with a younger group of kids. For older children, I think their are better tools with more options available that can provide simliar uses. I think it would be a good tool to use for creative projects. (About me, history posters, collages)

to Wiki or not to Wiki

My favorite thing about using the wiki was is the students' ability to collaborate and share their work.  Say, if someone starts their project really early they can continue to change and make it better as they see ideas from other people's pages. It's also a good way to make the project a long-term resource for everyone in the class.
I wouldn't overuse wikis but I think it would be most useful as a posting place for a project or for an ongoing formula sheet. I could assign each chapter to a group of students and that group would make a study guide/ formula sheet to put on the wiki. That way, everyone would contribute to a course study guide that they can reference even after that school year is over.
Next time, I would definitely change my font styles more to show creativity and emphasis. One thing I did do though, that some others did not, was to at least make the post centered.
