I found Ning to be pretty amazing, but overwhelming at first. There is a lot going on there, for sure! But, after a few minutes exploring, I found it to be very useful. I especially like the fact that there are many discussion forums for me to turn to to help me get started using some of these new concepts with my students. Let’s be honest, I have learned more in the past month during this online class, than I can remember learning in a long time. And all of that information is piled up and waiting to be used with students! I read a thread about how to begin using Voice Thread with students. I found this very useful. I almost feel like I can turn to Ning for help when I get stuck, because it is full of people that have been where I’ve been. They are sharing information and ideas and I can’t wait to utilize them!!!!
