Task 12: What I have learned

I can easily share what I have learned w/ my cool tools wiki: http://mmethomas.wikispaces.com/

I already have, actually. With teachers and family. Anyone who is interested. I've had great feedback. Here is feedback from my main wiki:

I shared it w/ my FL department head and she is arranging a day for me to teach it to my colleagues as a PLU class. I have also joined a network of FL teachers called MIWLA where I share videos and my websites w/ teachers all over the US.

And I have joined another network of Teachers of French as a foreign language where I have added 46 videos and my website.

I'm sharing ideas and learning things from colleagues just like me, only they are from Spain, France, Morocco, Mexico, Maurice Islands, Canada, China, you name it! I have about 200 videos on teachertube, 350 videos on youtube, 3000 public photos on flickr, and my main website has had international visitors from at least 118 different countries.

I have made a total of 14 wikis:

Ah Bon textbook
7th grade French
Cool Tools
5th grade French
Exploratory French
Exploratory Spanish
Exploratory Latin
6th grade Spanish
7th grade Spanish
HIES
France-Spain 2010 Trip
My Artwork

Son, Alex, wiki

I have almost 200 social bookmarks on French alone on delicious. So what have I learned? That I still have much to experience and learn from others, but I have a good head start to sharing w/ the world thanks to web 2.0 (insert angels singing here ;))

Thomas out!!
