MTG,<br />
<br />
I added those lists. Some taking hours, some just minutes where I filtered and tweaked Amazon's lists. But I hope to get more time and add more for Classroom 2.0.<br />
<br />
The idea is great and a no brainer, win-win. We can recommend books and the conversation /recommendations won't be lost and to be started ad infinitum......... A great resource for new teachers too and just ideas for books.<br />

<br />
I'm going to work this week on some more CR2.0 lists , next week I'll make a post on the main forum. As I said, we can use 3 ways to add lists. Listmania on Amazon (send me the id), make a discussion here and I or others can add, go to <a href="http://books4teachers.ning.com/forum">http://books4teachers.ning.com/forum</a> and add your own. This is an experiment but a worthy one. I like the Books TEachers love list and I have another even better one coming up...<br />
<br />
And once again, CR20 gets $$$$ for events, maintenance, growth and buyers will get more and deeper discounts, the more we buy as a group through the store. Win / win.<br />
<br />
I"ll add the elementary books to a list shortly! Right now just down and out -- Ning's new release destroyed MONTHS of work on my Resource Share forum which teachers from all over the world used.....ugh....<br />

The bookstore idea sounds great, David. Did YOU personally add all of those books and lists, or are other CR2.0 members adding already?<br />

Lots of great ideas and Kelly, you are bang on in suggesting more "group collaboration and power" , however that unfolds.<br />
<br />
I've been thinking along those lines also and last month created a <a href="http://books4teachers.org/classroom20bookstore.html" target="_blank">Classroom 2.0 bookstore.</a> Check it out and see some of the lists I've made collecting books discussed in threads here on Classroom 2.0 (in particular Gifted Learners / Books teachers love).<br />

I've been thinking along those lines also and last month created a <a href="http://books4teachers.org/classroom20bookstore.html" target="_blank">Classroom 2.0 bookstore.</a> Check it out and see some of the lists I've made collecting books discussed in threads here on Classroom 2.0 (in particular Gifted Learners / Books teachers love).<br />
<br />
I'll be making an announcement on the main forum in a week or so but thought I'd run it through this thread. Please let me know your thoughts.<br />
<br />
The idea is to use the power of this group to create some content and some $$$. It's a great idea to use our collective knowledge about books, store them for other teachers. Also, Classroom 2.0 gets a commission from each book bought through the store (fully secure Amazon). Use our numbers to help the community and this money can then go to Classroom 2.0's future.<br />
<br />
I have <a href="http://eflclassroom.ning.com/wpage/books" target="_blank">a nice bookstore</a> on EFL Classroom 2.0 and get lots of feedback on how it really helps teachers to see what books are out there and what is "teacher recommended". Not just for buying but also browsing and getting an idea as a new teacher -- what is "worthy".<br />
<br />
<br />
Further, the idea is to create a series of personalized bookstores for teacher's networks. Please see the forum postings on <a href="http://books4teachers.ning.com/forum" target="_blank">Books4teachers</a> to see how it works. Teachers can either list books there, list on their own network or make lists using LIstmania and send me the Listmania ID to post on the bookstore shelf.<br />
<br />
Let me know your thoughts and librarians needed too!<br />

I too have an account in TappedIn but can't seem to figure it all out. Maybe now that summer is here, I'll have more time to try. In the meantime, Kelly, your wiki is great fun! And, Susan, I'm going to check out Diigo...I never heard of it before. Oh boy...more to learn!

Great idea Susan. I was wondering if we might also try using TappedIn to congregate and share ideas. I've an account there - it will take me a few days to get organized - end of school and all. I'll give more details as they become available.
