31. While exploring Flickr
I got the idea to do a
virtual field trip with
my students. We
started a unit about
Egypt in social
studies and I was
thinking that we could
use the geotagging
feature to take a quot;field
tripquot; and then make a
comic book of the
tour. There a lot of
excellent pictures
people have posted.

54. School 2.0...
School 2.0 needs to be about creating knowledge, analyzing
information, and evaluating both.
Itʼs about understanding a world
in which connections and
communicating with others is at
the foundation of how we learn.
Through creating our own
knowledge, not from what a
teacher tells us, but rather from
what we read, listen to, and
watch ourselves is far more
powerful.
