Week 2

My wiki link is: https://www.wikispaces.com/user/my/aoigonza
As I explore wiki, I realized that wiki is more interactive than Blog. For example, you can edit or add more content on someone's posts with pictures or videos via wiki, whereas you can just leave comments on blog. As a learning tool, wiki would be effective for group work since students will learn cooperation with colleagues while working on blog is the same as online study such as the Moodle site.

My Weebly website is: aoigonza.weebly.com

Big 6 is more specific and clear for me. For example, as Eisenberg (2001) stated, the Big 6 is based on six stages such as: Task Definition: Information Seeking Strategies: Location and Access: Use of information: Synthesis: Evaluation. In addition, Eisenberg (2001) mentioned that the Big 6 is effective with assignments. Therefore, the Big 6 will facilitate students' learning.

  1. Hello Aoi-san,

    I agree with your idea. Wiki accepts more people's interaction. This means it is a good idea to apply the use of Wiki for group activities! Weebly also achieves a collaborative group learning like project-based assignment, or just simply a classroom website for a particular topic.

    I also thought Big six theory was more clear. It shapes any learning stage and provides what will be strategies to apply.

  2. Hello, tokyo345! Thank you for the comment.
    I think that Big six is one of the important teaching tools in elearning. Teachers, especially whose teaching areas are not related to computers, should know this strategy in order to teaching globally and effectively.
