As for the synchronous learning, I think that synchronous learning reflects the same climate that exists in the classroom. The extroverted personalities dominate while the wallflowers stick silently to the wallpaper. <br /> </li> </ul> <ul> <li> Edutopia -- This community for good or bad seems to be a venue for Hollywood to place its agenda into the classroom.<br /> </li> <li> Learning Times -- This might be the best as it has a free membership, along with a wide range of webcasts, podcasts, and interesting what-nots.</li> <li>Merlot -- This site seems seriously focused on education as well. I liked the math materials ther offered.</li> <li>Digital Divide Network -- contained a large number of blogs and seemed predominantly intended for "industrial" education.</li> <li>LERN --was too expensive</li> <li>Sloan-C -- seems like a non-Hollywood version of Edutopia.</li> <li>Teacher Tube-- is just too cool. I think, however, its publication benefits for children is very positive.</li> <li>Online adjuncts -- is a Yahoo! group, which is great for people who love chatrooms.</li> <li>Classroom 2.0 --appears too social for it to be serviceable for me.<br /> </li> </ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6768779567918468158-6651153788858006048?l=jayboles.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jay Boleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01035206256635834840noreply@blogger.com0
