Zotero

I've checked out zotero. too bad I never had this tool 15 years ago when I was writing papers in my history courses. It is quite interesting to see the changes that have occured when searching and quoting references. Zotero makes this seem easier to do. I've experimented with zotero when I was researching Cyber-Bullying for a presentation I am doing for the school board. A question I had was how are you certain what the type of web page you are viewing? In other words how do you know if it is a journal, report, publication, etc. ? Is that important?

You Tube

I've done a podcast on You Tube and my thoughts about using this in the classroom based on the article by Stephen Downes. That was cool! I played with the effects, but just left it at normal.
