Thing # 10

RSS stands for really simple syndication as we learned in the utube clip on the 23 thing instruction site. I really enjoy having what ammounts to a summary of my interests in one place so I don't have to waste time chasing down the new information. Organization is very important in my life because my memory stinks and the better organized I am the more likely I am to remember everything needed in a week. The area in education I see RSS apps being most useful is continuing education. As educators we need to stay up on the changes and standards in our fields. Flagging information related to your class is a great and easy way to stay up to date. I'm sure we have all had that teacher who was fifteen years behind on the information they presented and we all knew it. I do not want to be that type of educator!
