Thing TwentyThree

Almost finished.  I am typing this morning with a bandaid on my finger.  Hopefully, you won't have to read through a bunch of typos.  OK, here we go!

Well, well, well, we meet again Creative Commons.  Just when I thought we had seen the last of each other. 

The example that I found about the 23 Things being based on something else and modified was the 43 Things.  The 43 Things is for tracking personal progress while learning something new.  Now, I think of this blog kind of like a bucket list of learning.  Each "thing" gets checked off when you explore and learn about it. 

In my future classroom, I will use Creative Commons to show students how to cite things that they find on the internet.  I would love to have some sort of webquest for them to go on and find different things on the list and cite them properly.  I would also go to the Creative Commons website and show the students the short video that introduces them into the information.  Also, I would show my lovely PP that I made earlier. :)  By learning about Creative Commons, students are being introduced to the idea that they ahve to give credit to the original author/creator.  This is a great way to introduce them to what plagarism is and how to research and correctly cite their information.

TwentyThree down!
