I spent Friday morning with 22 student teachers and a couple teachers from my school. My goal was to introduce them to the world of web2.0, wikis, and del.icio.us. Well 2 out of 3 ain't bad- I didn't really get into delicious beyond an introduction. That aside, I think this group of future teachers really understood my point that education is changing and our teaching needs to change too!
The slideshare was my main introduction, and here is the wiki we used. I gave them each a page to play with and used video's to convey many of the ideas I wanted to get across. I'd like to thank SFU Faculty Advisor and friend John Stockdale for the opportunity.
I'd love to be able to give this message to every student teacher!

David,
I think this is great. I'd love to see how we could add music to it. Thanks for taking the time to develop this.
