Kids need skills of 21st century, but funding restrictions make teachers use 19th/20th century tools Social Networking:
 * Facebook - create a facebook page of a character (book or historical figure) - use design template in PPT; higher order thinking comes in when consider what would post, how friends would respond to post
 * Historical Facebook - access on Google Docs; created by Derrick Waddell - address in PPT
 * Fictional Character Profile - access on PPT
 * Google "facebook templates" to use with kids
 * Create avatars
 * Microblogging (Twitter)
 * Twitter wall - (Dollar Store has speech bubbles can use on strips); summarize in 144 characters
 * Why Twitter? - need to know use responsible; grow with technology; digital footprint discussions; what is flaming?
 * Sell a book in one line; create your Tweet
 * Teachers can see what student takes away from the book
 * Respond to a character
 * Be character from history & write post from any day (ex. Truman & how felt when decided to drop bomb)
 * Drawback to Twitter - hinders full language development; audience!
 * full sentence to text talk
 * text talk to full sentence
 * Digital Storytelling
 * Photos from photo sharing to teach vocab; students locate photos from own life to teach coach - create story from there
 * Picture of themselves to build photo timeline - could then connect tot capzle or other timeline program
 * Picture from phone/cameral to find theme then write story
 * One take video (one shot wonders - no editing) - "how to videos", media literacy, solve math problems (need to have problem/solution created on separate paper and slide into view of camera); can assess
