I feel that the websites introduced to us in class were very useful. Thinkfinity and teacher tube can especially be helpful to me.
I still feel uncomfortable with blogging. Theoretically, blogging can be a great technological tool. However, I feel that students using blogs can be dangerous. I guess that I am somewhat leery of the Internet and as a result, I worry about Internet safety. High school students are very adept at blogging and social networking. Ideally, these could be very successful in education. There have to be lots of blocks and monitoring so that students don't abuse these sites. We also have to be careful of cyber predators.
I hope to implement many of these websites into my curriculum in September. Thanks!

Arleen,
Thanks for taking the class and sharing your experience and learning with us. Blogging certainly isn't for everyone but now you have at least experienced it. Your concerns are valid ones and not to be taken lightly.
