These tools are popular with students in that they get another way of learning thats outside of the classroom. They get a break from the regular daily schedule and learn by technology. In classroom the students' have clickers that they can all answer to a quiz by pushing buttons. It shows who hasn't answered and what they scores are immediately. Some may like to email back and forth a pen pal or email each other or teacher for other questions,
How will the social tools/networking skills learned help me communicate with my colleagues?
These tools of blogging, email, word documents, and so on are all important skills to help you communicate with your colleagues. When your colleagues all know these skills too you can combine ideas for a good unit coming up or a special lesson plan. You also have to communicate with the technology personnel to sign up for certain times and borrow equipment like a mobile lab. All the teachers' of the same grade level need to cooperate together to see and evaluate past learning and new techniques. By emailing back and forth, teachers' can talk more frequently since its out of school.
