Thing 19

In addition to Twitter and Facebook, I have also joined the social networks TeacherPop and Craftster. TeacherPop is appealing because it is specifically for those networked to APSU. This network is a place for teachers to communicate and share ideas about common interests, which is teaching and education. I also decided to join Craftster. It is a social network for people who enjoy doing crafts and making art for a hobby. On the website you can find out how to do just about every craft imaginable. There are articles, pictures and videos. My favorite part of the website is the tag cloud. The tag cloud has hundreds of different tags of things such as, Halloween, Christmas, children's books, and different crafts that go along with each tag. I think I could use this later on in the classroom to find crafts for students to do that could enhance the curriculum.
