Thing #10

I chose to subscribe to these 5 RSS feeds:
Pioneer Woman http://thepioneerwoman.com/
Crafts by Amanda http://craftsbyamanda.com/
Full Price NEVER http://fullpricenever.com/
My Baking Addiction http://www.mybakingaddiction.com/  and
On Special Education  http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/speced/     :)  I'm so excited about them!

I really enjoy how simple and easy RSS feeds are. I can just go and find a blog that I enjoy, click a button, and it shows up on my feed and I am able to follow it from there; hassle free. I think it would be fairly easy and fun to have a lesson on something and find some corresponding blogs with RSS and add them to one google reader that the students and I can access to learn more inside and outside of class. This way, we're always learning. Having the students find their own that goes along with the subject and adding it in would also be easy to use as an assignment. The ones that I chose for this "Thing" are pretty much for my personal use and I hope to gain a lot from them. Teachers can use this technology to their advantages with their students, parents, even faculty, to stay connected and on the "same page".
