Thing 3

WIDGETS...."apps" by any other name....

I use an iPod...not an iPhone...just the Pod...not even the iPad....so...I am familiar with adding this type of application to link to ~THINGS~

I like to have accessibility to photo's, video's & favorite websites, so widgets allow instant access to these apps.

When students create a blog and add widgets, this will show you "who they are" and "what they are interested" in by simply looking at their widgets.

Very insightful tool, actually!

  1. Wow, great blog. I am impressed! You are very tech-savy! (No on the tech-no!)

  2. It is so very true that blogging with our students will allow us insight into who they are that we didn't have before. That is a benefit to Web 2.0 that I hadn't thought about until now.
