Project 16

Using the website Tumblr, we, The Grey Wardens (Emily Russell, Jay Shiver, and Rodney Patrick) have built a PLN that any teacher or student can turn to for ideas and tools they can use in the classroom, and we have done it in a way that attempts the kind of writing with multimedia project that Richard Miller talked about in This is How We Dream.

Project #13

For Project 15 and 16 our group, The Grey Wardens, used Google Docs, Gmail, Tumblr, and Skype to discuss the way we should handle our projects. Personally, I preferred Gmail and Tumblr. This is mostly because I find Google Docs a little annoying to navigate, and also because I hate Skype. I just to not like videotaping myself. It makes me self conscious and uncomfortable. If I'm unable to meet someone in person I much prefer to use more traditional methods of contact. To be honest I find all these forms to be useful only in the absence of the ability to make contact with each other in person. I know that was the point of this exercise, so once again I preferred Email.
