Out of order, but....
Here is an interesting use of a wiki. It takes a traditional assignment and adds a virtual twist. It has received a lot of responses. Karl Fisch, the father of this student, is tech coordinator at Arapahoe High School in Colorado. He created a video for one of his staff days that "went viral" and has had millions of YouTube views.
If you have never watched Shift Happens by Karl Fisch, do so. It is a great conversation starter for staff days or any other time the need for technology and information literacy arises. This is Shift Happens 2.0.
Karl's blog The Fischbowl is an interesting read, too.

I first saw a version of this video during my Master's coursework a few years ago, and loved it. I think it puts the egocentric mindset of America in its place. Our job as educators is a BIG one.
And on a related note I thought it was interesting that this morning on the news it was reported that jobs in education are recession-proof. Hmmmmmmmmm.
Thanks for sharing.
