Creative Commons

Loved watching the video about 'Creative Commons' and learning about the different licenses. I want to share this with my class - spent some times looking for kid friendly lessons to use with my class, but didn't find any. So I will keep looking or create my own.

After watching the video I think I need to clarify my view point on 'who owns the information on the web' - though I believe we all own it - by that I mean it is put on the web for our use, not for us to claim it as our own creation.

Field Study checking

I should be in panic mode right now. I have not gotten very far in my field study. It took over a month to get my students all onto my website and the wiki, so last week we finally did our first assignment on line. Even though I have not gotten very far into my field study I am loving using my website and the wiki. We have been integrating technology in so many ways.

The goal of my field study is to use peer feedback (through the wiki) to improve our writing. Unfortunately, we have only had one opportunity to do this. I want to do more . . . I don't want to just give the students an assignment to complete my field study - I want it to be valid.
