My website (www.carolbroos.com) has lots of student podcasts. It is an middle school site (grades 4-8) It has commenting on the podcasts. There are three other sites that are student-generated: www.lazertron,net www.chordsville.com and our new district podcast started December 1, 2007: www.pod29.com

I also have a links to other website I have developed: Japan (I was a Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund educator) Finally, I have a teachers who developed podcasts at my sessions during conferences (www.beatechie.com)

There are links, calendars, videos (Spring Storm), and musical compositions.

It won the best student-centered site from Digital Education 2007.

There is a similar thread here: http://classroom20.ning.com/forum/topic/show?id=649749%3ATopic%3A93754

Can I suggest two comprehensive lists which appear there:

www.supportblogging.com which Steve Hargadon (the creator of this ning created)

http://movingforward.wikispaces.com/ Which Scott McLeod has created and has blogs listed by age/grade level AND also helpful materials for PD classes.

Hi - I am a fifth grade teacher on Marco Island (Florida). My classroom blog is jmundorf.edublogs.org. We use it very frequently and have many visitors from around the world. I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you might have after you take a look. Enjoy!

My blog (http://mrbarlow.wordpress.com/) has been really successful at motivating students to want to learn about science. Another example of my use of a blog is reACTION (http://year9reaction.wordpress.com/) a unit of work based around creating a chemistry video.
Enjoy :)

I am using a wiki, for the first time with my AP calculus students. I am not very experienced with Web2.0 tools so this may not be the excellent example you are looking for! However, it may inspire a beginner, like me, to get their feet wet!

Hi Amy

I teach at the college level but I think you could adapt somethings to any age range. Here are example of some of my work:
www.nle2007.wordpress.com (my blog)
www.frenchlit.wetpaint.com (my wiki)
www.monde-de-magie.ning.com (my NING)

Good luck in your search

Nathalie

I have bee using wikis to run just about everything in my classes. Though it changes in use the more I use it, students love it as the vehicle for learning in the classroom. Last year it was

This year's wiki is:

https://mrsmaine.wikispaces.com/

We are also blogging, but just getting started so nothing up yet.

I also have a wiki that I used for teaching how to use a wiki: http://wikiwikiteaching.wikispaces.com/

The great thing about wikis is that they can embed so many great Web 2.0 tools. My favorite tool is VoiceThread. See how teachers are using VoiceThread at http://voicethread4education.wikispaces.com . Teachers from all over and of all grade levels have embedded examples from their programs.
