Things #22

I just so happens that my high school alumni use Ning to power our social website. The site is a Facebook knockoff where you can upload pictures, share personal information and interest. You can also write messages for the public to see or send private messages for a specific person only.

Within the site are groups broken down into year of graduation and even clubs you were once involved in. It neat and is a one stop place to find freinds and information on reunions.

I think we are going to see more Nings in the future being used in school to spark classroom discussions online outside the clasroom or simply to keep students/educators connected and collaborating beyond the staff meetings.
