Look at me go!!!
This was surprisingly really really easy. I am so excited and love how easy they make it. I love the look of this template, I had added my own picture but preferred this so I changed it back. This feels easier to manage as a digital immigrant than a Wiki does.
In the classroom
PlusI think this would be great to set up as part of a learning centre activity. It would provide a wonderful opportunity for students to work at their own pace. The teacher could tailor the learning towards groups or individuals. This would allow students to work within their zone of proximal development (Snowman, Dobozy & Scevak, 2009).
Minus
Students may be easily distracted and by other sites. As it is a static cite it does not allow for teachers to interact with students via feedback.
Implications
This could be a great way to differentiate for the varying need of today's students. It may also foster the development of independence of learning. When working correctly this would allow the teacher more time to spend with students who need extra support.
