We discussed and learned about Delicious, Igoogle, and Page flakes.

This is a follow up from a training called.  “Managing and sharing the internet.”

The training was focused on NETS Student Standard 2, Communication and Collaboration, which states, “Students use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others.”
