Image Gnerator

I looked through the mass amount of sites on Image Generator. The one I liked the best was the Logo maker. The link is:

http://www.text2logo.com/

I enjoy making different logos for a variety of things. Please check out the link to see the variety of logo designs available.

Library Thing

Library Thing is helpful for finding books. It is a good tool to find books for researching. The summaries make it easy to find books with necessary information. I added 5 random books just to see how it worked. This site will help me in the near future when looking up books for assignments.

You Tube video

You Tube

I had fun searching around on YouTube. I started by searching for videos related to PE. I refined my search to PE and found many more videos on the topic. I got some great teaching ideas from some videos.

I think You Tube can be a very successful tool in the classroom when used the right way. I can use exercise videos in an aerobics unit, and I can use videos of other games to show the students how to play.

Delicious



I spent lots of time on the delicious site. The bookmarks were fun to read. I can see where you can get new ideas to find information. I like the way postings etc are categorized. The tags help find information quicker.

I looked for education sites under the education tags. I found many different sites. I looked up sites for a variety of information.

I do see how a social bookmarking site would help in research. Delicious is a useful site and social bookmarking.

Web 2.0 site comments

It was interesting to see the site Zillow as a selection for the Real estate section. I was able to look at current home/property values and, for some, what monthly payments the owners make.
