Comments on: Helping Teachers Out http://www.wikinomics.com/blog/index.php/2008/07/30/helping-teachers-out/ Exploring How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything Sun, 28 Aug 2011 14:21:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Caleb Love http://www.wikinomics.com/blog/index.php/2008/07/30/helping-teachers-out/comment-page-1/#comment-157727 Caleb Love Thu, 31 Jul 2008 15:49:45 +0000 http://www.wikinomics.com/blog/?p=1809#comment-157727 Those links look really cool and the applets intrigue me. I am one of those students that changed his major specifically to avoid those classes, but the tools look like they would be very beneficial. I forgot to post another resource. Diigo is a social bookmarking site similar to Del.icio.us but it is specifically developed for research collaboration. I might write a blog post on it later on because I love it so much but at the classroom20.com website they have a Diigo group that may also be filled with great education links as well.

His plan is to use them in the classroom to help his students understand the concepts a little better and a little less abstract. http://www.physics-lab.net/applets is a list of the applets he has made so far.

Many of us are raising the issues, having the discussion, and collaborating to make a difference in opening up education and the transformation of it into Education 2.0 Groups like Classroom 2.0, Edublogger World, and NextGen Teachers are doing their part. Thanks for the list of resources and for your support and ideas. Thanks for not throwing all of us in education under the bus.
