Thing 23

http://classroomlearning2.csla.net/

The 23 things project is a great project for learning about web 2.0 tools and technologies. Thanks to creative commons, we now know that other schools also use the same project and APSU was not the first to use it or create it. The link above shows the same project being using by a library in California, but I also found many others. It is a great an effective project, and thanks to creative commons, it can now be shared and modified from school to school to help future learners all around the world.

Creative Commons is important because you need to be aware of the things on the internet that you can and cannot share. Before taking this class, I would copy and paste images and things on to powerpoints and social media websites without even knowing they were copyrighted and I was unaware of how important this issue is when it comes to the internet. Now that I know, I think it will  be very important for me as a future teacher to share this information with my students and make sure they know what can and cannot be done when it comes to the internet.
