I have been attending a workshop with Will Richardson about Blogs, Wikis, and Podcasts. We are going to be writing curriculum this summer for a 9th grade technology course and we definately need to change the course to be using more 21st Century Skills. Here are some of the items that I would like to discuss about incorporating into a 9th grade technology course:
• Wikipedia
• Safety – myspace and their future
http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/
• Website evaluation
• Networking sites
• Collaborate
• Navigate
• Blogging
• Creating Google accounts, adding subscriptions (Reader), Google News (searching and subscribing to only articles from one specific newspaper)
• Online bookmarks – social bookmarking site
http://del.icio.us/ (just type in delicious)

• Organizing things – Book: Everything is Miscellanous
