Things I will use as a result of this webcamp in the classroom include:
incorporating having students set up a blog for open house for parents to read; incorporating using my delicious website account for various computers and having my students set up accounts; showing students how to create avatars for their blog page. I might use flicker to upload various pictures that our students can download into powerpoint presentations. I probably will use podcasting since we tend to have many auditory learners. I will need to do some research to acquire the links to be demonstrated in class.
I felt the class was very beneficial for me and I learned a nice variety of key technology tools to facilitate my overall knowledge of key components that are used in todays communication process.
Boy, things sure have come a long ways from taking shorthand and keying on electronic typewriters in the years I was taking college!

I'm excited that you have found some things that you want to use with your students. Don't be surprised if some of these tools are still blocked for students. Try using them with other teachers so that you become comfortable with them so that when they are opened for students, you will be ready. Good luck! Keep posting on your blog so that I can see how you are using these tools.
