Thing #6

At first this one confused me so I went back and read and re-read the sites and I finally got it! The one I really like that I feel I will use in my science classroom is the Digg. We are always asking students to brainstorm about a topic, so why not brainstorm using computers???? This way students can all contribute their findings and then at a later date the whole class can review all the information students have found using the activeboard.
I would also probably use Mappr to have students use maps and pictures to geographically locate catastrophic events as they occur around the globe. This can be used as an ongoing activity all year long.
