Thanks so much - I am really interested in simulating social media for novel studies as I think ti really teaches and demonstrates the interactivity of characters beyond the page =)Luluhttp://www.thepenguingeisha.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-14285427434212988342011-04-07T15:17:26.854-04:002011-04-07T15:17:26.854-04:00Teacher's Discovery has just launched an onlin...Teacher's Discovery has just launched an online blank Farcebook creator.

The template is awesome, but I can't take all of the credit. I did something similar with Myspace a few years ago. Remember Myspace? Lol! My kids really enjoyed creating character facebook pages. It was a great way to connect with them. <br /><br />- NickNick Provenzanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11315889912014481563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-26540943270621406992011-03-07T10:49:52.314-05:002011-03-07T10:49:52.314-05:00Thanks for all the great comments & suggestion...Thanks for all the great comments & suggestions dear readers & friends!

But I daily fight the Abominable No Man ..people who spend more time telling me how they can't do something for the good of the kids rather than finding a way to do it! But then again, each server cluster is diff.

Do you happen to know how the Macs are networked? Any info you can give me would be greatly appreciated!!Debbie Natolihttp://redfrn.weebly.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-58065019573784641172011-03-05T12:04:22.588-05:002011-03-05T12:04:22.588-05:00Wow, Gwyneth!

As always, both your text and your images are inspiring.

This type o...Thank you thank you thank you Gwyneth! This type of thing is exactly what we've been looking for. Rather than actually building pages on Facebook itself (tangential story: a police officer came to chat with the gr 7/8 kids and asked in a conversational tone, "so who here has Facebook?" and when tons of hands went up, she changed her voice to stern and said "don't you know you have to be [whatever the age is, I can't recall] to be on there?" - the looks on their faces was funny - okay, I'm seriously digressing, where was I?), using the templates and putting them on the wiki we have would be so incredibly awesome as well as the other options you listed. I am so sending a link to my intermediate teachers!!!MZMollyTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17565896547458451347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-45009447290721493512011-03-04T18:33:54.362-05:002011-03-04T18:33:54.362-05:00The mock facebook pages are such a clever idea!

Can't wait for your Fakebook version, though, as many of the templates out there are a little clunky.

Also, I recently saw FamousInboxes.com which is a similar fun idea, except with this all you see is the subject line of messages in the inbox of your character/historic figure.Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18008805134443395191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-35297116559083570202011-03-04T15:32:39.277-05:002011-03-04T15:32:39.277-05:00The lab looks beautiful and I will admit we are en...The lab looks beautiful and I will admit we are envious. Those sort of funds just aren't available but we are getting 15 refurbished mac books so we can have a portable lab in the next two years. What a shame the lab has to be booked for standardized testing. Shame.<br />I have similar Facebook projects for Shakespeare plays. They really help students apply their learning and stretch their thinking. Thanks for some more great ideas.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17652867215849990879noreply@blogger.com
