Session 6: Podcasts, Video & Downloadable Audio

Today I learned about the Kindle that allows you to read books on a wireless, portable reading device with instant access to more than 140,00 books, blogs, newspapers and magazines. The cost is over $359.00. Will this mean the end of a book that you can hold in your hand and read in bed? Or, am I just being old-fashioned?

Here is a website for downloadable classics to place on your Ipod or Kindle.

Here is another website which is a free online library offering thousands of free books for students and teachers.

This class has truly been an eye-opening experience. I feel that I have just scratched the surface and need to explore further of course. I truly enjoyed this blog experience and discovered that if you share too much information you will have lots of people come to view your blog! I also will be using my delicious account lots in place of my favorites. Thanks to our wonderful teaacher for sharing all of this with us! I have also enjoyed meeting and sharing with all my classmates.

Session 5: Wikis and Online Applications and Tools

Wow! Now I know the difference between a blog and a wiki--in a blog you share your opinion and the wiki gives factual information. I can definitely see the teacher application for the wiki--how much information the student share can determine the grade and of course how much of the information is factual. And I really enjoyed the Library Thing was really interesting. I would like to spend more time exploring.
