Ideas for using blogs, webpages and wiki with my students
I have to be careful what I ask my students to do on the internet. There has been so much negative publicity about my face and face book, etc. that my administration is paranoid. I think I could have them create a webpage with a personal profile, provided that the profile is ficticious. They could each choose to be a teenager from a Spanish speaking country. They could write about their town, city, school, hobbies, families, etc. They could pretend to be students of a virtual high school who are getting to know their virtual classmates through the use of their webpages and personal blogs. They could invite each other to come for a visit and could share with each other what exciting things they will do and learn when they meet face to face.

Hi Pam,
I have been enjoying your postings... To go back to the technolgy subject, I do like your idea, and I agree with you on the fact that we have to be very careful about how to use it in our classrooms. In the same line, I was also thinking about possibly creating a cyber recipe book in the format of a 'WIKI'in which students can share authentic recipes with ingredients and directions in the target language, accompanied by pictures. I think that our administration could perceive it as safe :) Nadia
