Best 2007 Blog

The blog I had to read about was about teaching children who has multiple special needs. This blog is filled with different programs for helping special needs children learn, different projects that the kids are doing, and also plenty of websites or articles that teachers can get some really good ideas from. Plus there are links to pretty much anything you could want to check out down the left side. It seems to have a little of anything and everything. I found a blog that interested me, it was on a new wrist worn band that helps keep track of the kids schedule. It is a type of cuing method for the teacher instead of having to keep up with traditional flash cards. I think that this website is excellent for teachers who are dealing with kids with special needs because there seems to be a lot of useful information. If you would like to check it out for yourself here is the link ~ Teaching Learners with Multiple Special Needs

Trusting Wiki

Well, frankly I don't think that you will be ever be able to trust the information on wiki. I mean even with the tracking program making people stop and think, that's not going to work for long cause someone is just going to come up with some way to get around it. And then we have the battle back and forth of building better programs that can out do each other. Now, as a gamer, I like wiki cause we have a website that has all of our gaming information on it such as quests, spells, etc. and people can go and add stuff or change stuff as the game environment changes. But as for things that deal with specific facts for now, I think I will make sure I double check it and that its correct before I put it in any of the papers I have to write for school.
