Richardson's Learning well with others article.

I enjoyed the Richardson article on Learning well with others. I can see myself easily spending a lot of time following up on stuff I read there.

The “linear, age-grouped, individual, teacher-guided curriculum” is my history, both the way I learned, the way I was taught to teach, and my comfort zone. I expect to learn a lot from this site. My first two concerns are “How do we locate and discern good information and good partners for learning collaboratively and electronically?”. My second concern is if this method of preparation takes more prep time for giving students less preparation for the IB exams they are responsible for. “Collaborative solutions to knowledge problems” sure sounds attractive.

I wondered if the students in the Science 4 Humanities club could get information about projects to work on using blogsearch.google.com. I unsuccessfully tried it for information for my environmental systems class, but discovered I can get ideas by typing in the topic as <topic.blogspot.com>, which I hope to follow up on.

I liked the Fan Fiction link for my daughter. I found some Harry Potter stuff I now is right up her alley. I would like to follow up on the Clustrmap and Delicious sites. Do you find this valuable?
