I can imagine a magazine cover or movie poster highlighting new and noteworthy books in our library. The ideas are endless. I think that is what I loved most about getting my LMT credential - being around creative people who use available resources to make learning fun and meaningful.
#7 Besides using web 2.0 resources effectively in the classroom, I'm interested in trying out different instant response systems, document cameras/projectors (like the Elmo), whiteboard technology etc. Basically, I want all the bells and whistles that our district doesn't support to the fullest but I realize that can make a difference in the delivery of curriculum. Students need to be engaged and teachers must find new and better ways keep them interested.
I have started to learn and try a little bit of podcasting. Having students do this at an elementary level only has time as a limiting factor. Check out one of the podcasts I created out our Outdoor Science School last spring.
