A blog is a website for which an individual or a group frequently generates text, photographs, video or audio files, and/or links, typically (but not always) on a daily basis. The term is a shortened form of weblog. Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an

existing blog is called "blogging". Individual articles on a blog are called "blog posts," "posts," or

"entries". The person who posts these entries is called a "blogger".

Blogs are tools, and like any tools they can be used or misused. Misuse occurs more often when there's a lack of

instruction. (MySpace, Xanga, Facebook) Interactivity, publishing, collective

iPod + Broadcast = Podcast Amateur radio Podcasting is the method of distributing

multimedia files, such as audio programs or music videos, over the Internet using either the RSS or Atom syndication formats, for playback on mobile devices and personal computers.

Page 14: Online Tools To Engage Students

Podcasts enable students to share their knowledge and expertise with others through a creative outlet.

Podcasts tap into a mode of media input that is commonplace for digital natives.

Podcasts empower students to form relationships with the content and each other in relevant ways.

Page 15: Online Tools To Engage Students

Podcasting is yet another way for them [students] to be creating and contributing ideas to a larger conversation, and it’s a way of archiving that contribution for future audiences to use. Will Richardson, Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts and Other

Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms

Page 16: Online Tools To Engage Students

In the classroom, educators and students can use podcasts to inform others about class news, current events, and areas of interest.

Students can use a podcast forum to persuade their peers to help others, make a difference, or try something new.

Podcasts can also be used to edutain others through creative narratives.

Page 17: Online Tools To Engage Students

Podcasts engage students in thinking critically about their speaking fluency and communication skills.

The opportunity to create a podcast about what students would like to discuss and share with others is extremely motivating.

Page 18: Online Tools To Engage Students

Along with the use of technology there are certain responsibilities that educators and students need to follow. Educators need to instruct students on safe and acceptable

use of technology in and outside of the classroom. Not only do students need to learn how to appropriately

research, but also how to safely and properly share information online.

Podcasts allow students to learn first hand about copyright laws and fair use issues.

Podcasts are not “polished” – production value is secondary to the content

A wiki is a type of website that allows users easily to add, remove, or otherwise edit and change most available content.

Page 25: Online Tools To Engage Students

A single page in a wiki is referred to as a "wiki page", while the entire body of pages, which are usually highly interconnected via hyperlinks, is "the wiki“ in effect, a wiki is actually a very simple, easy-to-

use user-maintained database for searching and creating information.

Page 26: Online Tools To Engage Students

Wikis are generally designed with the philosophy of making it easy to correct mistakes, rather than making it difficult to make them.

Page 27: Online Tools To Engage Students

Thus while wikis are very open, they provide a means to verify the validity of recent additions to the body of pages. The most prominent, on almost every wiki, is the

"Recent Changes" page—a specific list numbering recent edits, or a list of all the edits made within a given timeframe.

Wikipedia is as reliable as other external sources we rely on.

Properly written articles cite the sources, and a reader should rely on the Wikipedia article as much, but no more, than the sources the article relies on.

If an article doesn't cite a source, it may or may not be reliable.

Students should never use information in a wiki until they have checked those external sources.

Page 31: Online Tools To Engage Students

Wikis are helping young people develop “writing skills and social skills by learning about group consensus and compromise—all the virtues you need to be a reasonable and productive member of society.” Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia

Page 32: Online Tools To Engage Students

“The media is controlled by people who have the resources to control it,” he says. “Wikis show that all of us have an equal opportunity to contribute to knowledge.” Andy Garvin, head of the Digital Divide Network

Page 33: Online Tools To Engage Students

Use wikis as formats for subject guides. Invite students and teachers to annotate your

catalog on a wiki. Make wikis meeting places for communities

inside the school. Link librarians and teachers in your district in

a collaborative enterprise.
