3/29 - VII

Okay. For me, he MSWord note taking deal would seem to be the way to go for the high school for note taking on texts pulled from the web. The concept could then be transferred to photoco-pied pages from hard texts. We will see.

As for the site directories, though they can focus kids, I still find nesting etc. more useful.

big time

Use of search and narrowing has major ramifications for the high school kids and I just know they are frustrated and for the most part do not know he finer points of finding stuff.

Wiki has potential for the big kids- but must be monitored easily to make it worthwhile (which I think it can be) because when it is out there it is out there for the world to see.

marvel is so vast as to be intimidating, exciting, discouraging, and so potentially useful from school to work to everyday stuff.

one of the things i always become concerned about with all this stuff is a sense of balance and that we not only teach students the possibilities of the tech stuff but the pit falls as well. this is not entirely a big6 issye i know.

but it is scary.
