Ning blog presentation
Ning is a social networking site that allows users to create customized online communities centered around specific topics or interests. It can be used in the classroom to create a safe online space for students to write blogs, participate in discussions, and share media. Teachers can post instructions, assignments, and communicate with students and parents through messaging. Features like blogs, forums, profiles and apps allow for cooperative learning, writing practice, and developing digital literacy skills. Creating a Ning account is easy and free for educators through Pearson sponsorship. It provides a platform for students to take ownership of their work while teachers can monitor discussions and posts.

1 1 learning environments
This document discusses the development of a contemporary learning environment at Manor Lakes P-12 Specialist College in Melbourne, Australia. It outlines considerations around preparing students, teachers, and the community for a 1:1 laptop program. These included focusing learning on skills like collaboration and problem solving. Classrooms were redesigned with flexible furniture to support different activities. Teachers received professional learning including school visits to support effective technology integration. The school aimed to create a learning environment where technology enhanced rich, engaging learning experiences for students.
The power of the online professional learning network
Coming to a conference like the annual VATE conference is a great way of learning and becoming inspired about our teaching. We gain ideas, resources and new ways of thinking about our practice in the classroom. But it is only once a year. Over the last few years I have found my professional learning extended by finding a network of enthusiastic and knowledgable teachers and educators from all around the globe who are on hand to give me inspiration and ideas whenever I need it. My new online Professional Learning Network (PLN) is a global network and fluid enough to accommodate learning anytime, anywhere. This workshop will demonstrate the use of nings, blogs, Twitter and diigo as a means to connect with other educators on a global scale and make learning more meaningful. It is for teachers at all levels of experience and all year levels.

The document provides instructions for a research project consisting of three steps. Step one is to choose a topic that interests you, excluding biographies. Step two involves reading three articles on the topic, writing summaries of each, and compiling the sources and summaries into an annotated bibliography. Step three is to present the research findings to the class using one of five formats: a poster, brochure, song/rap, PowerPoint presentation, or five paragraph essay. The project must include an annotated bibliography in MLA format listing the three sources with a short summary of each.
Ch05 details and transitions
This chapter discusses understanding paragraphs through supporting details and transitions. It explains that paragraphs contain a topic, main idea, supporting details, and transitions between ideas. Supporting details can include examples, facts, reasons, descriptions, and steps, and serve to prove or explain the main idea. Transitions guide the reader between ideas using words like time markers, enumeration, continuation, comparison/contrast, and cause/effect. The chapter teaches how to identify these components in a paragraph and paraphrase the ideas.
