This week the SCC faculty and staff community will begin having a real conversation about the potential of blogs and wikis as aids in our classrooms. I'm hoping each and every person who attends the initial sessions will come and visit and share their perceptions. While not all of us can or even need to incorporate these technologies in our classes, we at least need to be better aware of them.
In the initial workshop in August, several handouts were made available. These are now listed here:
7 things you should know about wikis
7 things you should know about blogs
7 things you should know about facebook
They all come from the Educause Learning Initiative website, which is a great web resource for those of us who are always trying to play "catch up" with technology.
I look forward to comments!

Publishing from Word 2007
It seems Word 2007 has a menu command specifically to help publish blog entries.
- In Word, go to the Microsoft Office Button and choose New.
- Under the Installed Templates category, choose New Blog Post.
- You will be prompted to register, and it's as simple as that!
Found a great online site this week for teaching resources again: it's the Faculty Innovation Center from the University of Texas at Austin. Great stuff! You can click the image below to see the topics more clearly!
