I was invited by Joe to join Ning in Education, education.ning.com. The appearance and set up are almost exactly the same as Classroom 2.0, and then I realized the same gentleman, Steve Haragon developed this social network as well as Classroom 2.0. They are pretty much the same thing. However some of the social network groups on Ning venture out into many other topics, not just education and this site may not be suitable for all students.
Ning is a simply put together site, and has a search engine to look for other social groups, these vary from dance to music and football. I'm not sure if there is a social group that hasn't been created? Let me know if you come up with one. In the future I will be more likely to search for groups and topics of interest using Ning then I will be using Classroom 2.0.
Hello fellow readers, this blog has been designed for the use and fulfillment of Education 693, Emerging Internet Technologies, at the University of Alaska Southeast.
