GAME Plan Action Planning

As I reflect on my GAME plan developed in my last post I need to get some information in order to begin planning my Actions. For my first Goal: To be able to teach a student how to use a blog or wiki. I first need to develop a list of blog and wiki sites that I can actively participate in to get improve my blogging and wiki-ing skills. I did some research and some good educational blogs are sites like Eduwonk, This Week in Education, and The Open Classroom. Wiki World has provided me with a number of Wiki project sites in which I can join to fine tune my Wiki skills throughout my GAME plan. Any suggestions for either type of site would be helpful.

As for my second Goal: To stay on top of the latest technological advances in education after graduating Walden University, I am currently compiling a list of reputable educational technology websites as to which I can visit after my tenure at Walden. Once again, any suggestions will prove to be extremely valuable to me. Thanks for helping me with my GAME plan!

  1. Carman,

    I would also like to do a wiki with my students before the end of the year. I plan to use wikispaces.com and do something similar to what we did in our previous classes. I want my students to create a wiki that rates math websites. There can be a page for game sites, practice sites, tutorials, and Q & A sites. Perhaps my students will come up with some other categories and find some great sites that my students can use in the upcoming year.

    I also wonder how I will keep up with technology once I graduate from Walden. I find it difficult to commit to blogging and social bookmarking on a consistent basis. Maybe we could both get some suggestions for this.
