Thing #22 Nings:
I am a bit familiar with a Ning since our librarian sent out a link to the Ning she was using for summer school to our department (here is a link to what she sent: http://pblsummerschool.ning.com/). She wants to work with the social studies department next year to create a Ning for students to use to share project ideas, blog, and load pictures. We need to meet as a department to discuss this but I think it is a valuable resource to use as teachers. The students will enjoy using the Ning since it is a social networking site similar to facebook. I also think it is valuable for students to have an electronic work space for all of their projects and ideas.
I found the teacher Ning (http://teacherlingo.com/) a helpful resource. I like the community the Ning creates by providing a forum for educators to discuss topics in the classroom. I found some interesting discussion topics.
