Ideas for using RSS in schools that I hadn’t thought about…from the article RSS Ideas for Educators111.

I like the idea of using rss for continuous provision of links. I can envision this being a quick way to customize links for patrons that will allow them to focus specifically on one subject area.

eportfolios are also an interesting way to collect writings — the rss does make it easy to know when they have posted and a comments feature does encourage peer review.

I like the way blogmeister and edublogs allow you to vreate accounts for your kids so that we don’t run into the email circle — kids having to have an email address to get an account at a web 2.0 site.
